Deshaun Watson posted 41.74 points for Blunts and Forte's, the best total in the matchup and second-highest in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to overcome H-block, who came out on top with a 129.86-120.84 win.

Coach Talk

H-block
Getting the win is most important, H-block, but we've also identified one spot where we can get stronger as a team: our QB was clearly outplayed by the opposition. Deshaun Watson went 28-of-33 for 426 yards and five touchdowns for Blunts and Forte's, and all Carson Wentz could manage through the air was 189 yards and one passing TD. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 6!
Blunts and Forte's
With only three receptions this past week, the starting running backs for Blunts and Forte's should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
