Offensively challenged Tommy P beat Big Ballers in 79.95-77.05 battle

Tommy P narrowly earned a 79.95-77.05 victory over Big Ballers in spite of posting only the 10th-highest point total in the league for the week.

Big Ballers came roaring back behind Daniel Jones, who passed for 279 yards and 2 touchdowns and ran for 22 yards for 24.15 points, and A.J. Brown, who caught 5 passes for 39 yards (3.9 points). Tommy P were led by Alvin Kamara (16 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 51 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and DeAndre Hopkins (14 Rec, 151 Rec Yds).
