Blunts and Forte's fall to RedZone, 112.92-99.92

There's no way around it, Blunts and Forte's dropped the ball, at least according to projections, as RedZone came back for a 112.92-99.92 victory. Trailing 99.92-87.92 heading into Monday night, RedZone came storming back behind Sony Michel (42 Rush Yds, 3 Rush TDs) and Jamison Crowder (4 Rec, 26 Rec Yds). Deshaun Watson (308 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 32 Rush Yds) and DeAndre Hopkins (9 Rec, 106 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) did their part for Blunts and Forte's in defeat. RedZone (3-4) will look to maintain their winning ways against 4X Champion, while Blunts and Forte's (4-3) will match up against Bad JuJu in an effort to get some positive momentum.
