Gandhi's Nudes knock off Demaryius Targaryen, 117.64-106.86

Despite similar records, Demaryius Targaryen held a substantial season point advantage over Gandhi's Nudes coming into this one (520-402). But the trend wouldn't continue this week with Gandhi's Nudes earning a 117.64-106.86 win. Demaryius Targaryen nabbed a 41.40-point lead on Thursday behind outstanding showings from Todd Gurley II (23.6 points) and Stefon Diggs (17.8). But Gandhi's Nudes held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Andy Dalton, who passed for 337 yards and 3 touchdowns and ran for 13 yards for 39.28 points, and the Green Bay Packers defense, who didn't allow any points, surrendered 145 yards, and forced 3 turnovers (23 points). Gandhi's Nudes (2-2) will look to keep it rolling against Monqueef, while Demaryius Targaryen (1-3) will try to get back on track against Molested Altar Boy.

Coach Talk

Gandhi's Nudes
Nice job overcoming that two-match losing skid, Gandhi's Nudes! Each fantasy GM is met with adversity somewhere along the way... keep pushing forward and remember that this season is far from over.
Demaryius Targaryen
Listen, we've been at it long enough to know that sometimes free points just seem to miraculously show up out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay; asking for an extra 11 points might be a bit on the excessive side. Keep your head up, Demaryius Targaryen!
