Manager-less Team succumb to Attack Pack in 94-38 rout

There's no sugarcoating it, Manager-less Team underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as Attack Pack cruised to a 94-38 win. There wasn't much drama in this matchup, as Attack Pack leapt out to a 29-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind a combined 32 points from Saquon Barkley (64 Rush Yds, 79 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and DJ Chark Jr. (6 Rec, 79 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD). Mason Crosby (7 points) and Josh Jacobs (7) were the top performers for Manager-less Team in the loss. Attack Pack (4-4) will look to keep it rolling against The Underachievers, while Manager-less Team (1-7) try to get back in the win column against Gravity Falls Dragon.
