Despite top scorer Elliott, Tijuana Jetz fall to Noodles in 157.9-134.9 rout

Ezekiel Elliott had 36 points for Tijuana Jetz, the best total in the matchup and seventh-best in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to overcome Noodles, who rolled to a 157.9-134.9 win. It didn't take long to figure out who would have the advantage in the matchup, as Noodles jumped out to a 37.6-point lead on Thursday behind 37.6 points from Mark Ingram II (76 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 10 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and the Baltimore Ravens defense (21 Pts Allowed, 310 Yds Allowed, 2 Turnovers). Ezekiel Elliott (36 points) and Tyler Higbee (28.1) carried the flag for Tijuana Jetz in the loss. This marks the second time this season Noodles have knocked off Tijuana Jetz, after winning 194.85-139.3 in their last matchup. Noodles will look to clinch the championship next week, while Tijuana Jetz attempt to bounce back and lock up 3rd Place.

Coach Talk

Noodles
Kudos on assembling a lineup that won by a whopping 23 points this past week. We did what was needed and took care of business.
Tijuana Jetz
With only three receptions on five targets this past week, the starting running backs for Tijuana Jetz should remind their QBs to start checking down more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
