Despite top scorer Watson, FLASH GORDON fall to Mr. Big Flex in 162.96-130.44 rout

There was very little drama in this one, as Mr. Big Flex jumped out to a 35.60-point lead on Thursday behind stellar performances from Cooper Kupp (26.7 points) and Tyler Lockett (14.3). Deshaun Watson (51.74 points) and Ezekiel Elliott (17.1) carried the flag for FLASH GORDON in the loss. Mr. Big Flex (4-1) will look to rack up another win against Jp's a bitch, while FLASH GORDON (1-4) try to get back on track against Parole Violators.
