LBJ GOAT find way to knock off Mr. Phamtastic in 106.50-82.12 rout despite falling short of predictions
Both teams underperformed expectations, but LBJ GOAT did enough to get the best of Mr. Phamtastic, cruising to a 106.50-82.12 win. Mr. Phamtastic jumped out to a 17.3-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind 42.7 points from Dalvin Cook (154 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 37 Rec Yds) and Antonio Brown (4 Rec, 56 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD). But it was all LBJ GOAT after that. They were led by Ezekiel Elliott (111 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Baker Mayfield (325 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD). LBJ GOAT (1-1) will look to build on their success against BaLLCHiNiaNzzz, while Mr. Phamtastic (1-1) attempt to get back on track against Darkhorse198.
Elliott was one of two starters to overachieve for LBJ GOAT this week. He scored 20 points (111 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) in a 31-21 win over the Redskins to beat his 17.04-point projection. Elliott ranks #49 among all fantasy players this season and will face the Dolphins next week.

LBJ GOAT
Putting together a lineup that produced 106.5 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we needed to do. Let's keep this momentum going as we move on to our Week 3 matchup.
Mr. Phamtastic
Our quarterback threw an interception and literally zero touchdowns? We may need to play Monday-morning quarterback here: Were the Rams really that great against the pass, or did Drew Brees seem shaky back there in the pocket? You'll need to decide one way or the other... Mr. Phamtastic, as you deploy your lineup for Week 3 and beyond!
