Despite top scorer Jackson, Drunkin Soldiers fall to Ryan's Team in 93.02-90.00 battle

Lamar Jackson accumulated 30.64 points for Drunkin Soldiers, the best total in the matchup and second-best in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to vanquish Ryan's Team, who came back for a 93.02-90.00 victory. Ryan's Team trailed 82.14-74.92 heading into Sunday night, but the unit charged back behind Philip Rivers, who passed for 320 yards and 2 touchdowns for 14.8 points, and Keenan Allen, who caught 2 passes for 33 yards (3.3 points). Lamar Jackson (236 Pass Yds, 152 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Nick Chubb (122 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 17 Rec Yds) were the leaders for Drunkin Soldiers in defeat. Ryan's Team (3-3) will look to get another W against Demolition men, while Drunkin Soldiers (3-3) will try to right the ship against Tim's team.
