DARC NARC had the highest scorer in the matchup with RB Ezekiel Elliott accumulating 36.7 points, the sixth-best total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to vanquish DominationStation, who rolled to a 142.90-108.25 victory. DominationStation nabbed a 14.40-point lead on Thursday behind Vance McDonald and never looked back. Ezekiel Elliott (151 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 36 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Jared Goff (318 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) carried the flag for DARC NARC in the loss. DominationStation (4-6) will look to maintain their winning ways against Dirty Hippies, while DARC NARC (3-7) try to get some positive momentum against Arrogant Americans.

Coach Talk

DominationStation
Sure, we ultimately earned the win, but we can't deny it, DominationStation; our starting running backs were thoroughly outclassed by the opposition. Nyheim Hines (22 total yards, no TDs) logged just 8.3 points in Week 10. Dion Lewis and Ezekiel Elliott showed us how it's supposed to be done by putting up a score of 45.5. We need to put some more effort into studying those playbooks!
DARC NARC
Hey, it's possible that DARC NARC could be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 16 total targets in Week 10, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently contributed to their respective offenses by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
