Despite top scorer Mahomes, Nematodes fall to The Enablers, 153.29-133.71

Nematodes had the highest scorer in the matchup with QB Patrick Mahomes posting 27.86 points, the ninth-highest total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to topple The Enablers, who secured a 153.29-133.71 win. The Enablers earned an early 15.50-point lead on Thursday. Nematodes came back to take the lead early Sunday, powered by Patrick Mahomes (27.86 points) and Jamie Collins Sr. (19). Not to be deterred, The Enablers pulled it together later that afternoon, as Deshaun Watson (25.84 points) and Devin Bush (20) put them back on top for good. The Enablers (1-2) will look to keep it rolling against Delvin's Cookers, while Nematodes (1-2) will meet BADGERS in an effort to get back in the win column.

Coach Talk

The Enablers
Way to shrug off that two-match losing skid, The Enablers! Each fantasy GM is faced with adversity at some point or another... keep pushing forward and remember the 2019 season is far from over.
Nematodes
Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: The starting backfield for Nematodes collectively logged only one measly target this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up a screen play or two in Week 4!
