Knight Riders extended their win streak to three games with a dominant win over Mangy Meese, rolling to a 110.47-55.07 victory.

Cousins passed for 319 yards and 3 touchdowns for 20.73 points, while Ingram II racked up 85 yards from scrimmage and caught 2 touchdown passes (20.5 points). Philip Rivers (14.77 points) and Julian Edelman (9.8) led the charge for Mangy Meese in defeat.

Knight Riders (5-6) will look to keep it rolling against Double Horn Duo, while Mangy Meese (7-4) will attempt to right the ship against The Komodos.
