Josh.0 succumb to Philly in 168.01-129.72 rout

Josh.0 failed to rise to the occasion, as Philly cruised to a 168.01-129.72 victory. It didn't take long to learn who would be the frontrunner in this matchup, as Philly grabbed a 68.28-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind stellar efforts from Corey Davis (29.1 points) and the Indianapolis Colts defense (22.9). Davante Adams (10 Rec, 121 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs) and the Green Bay Packers defense (16 Pts Allowed, 278 Yds Allowed, 1 Turnovers) led the way for Josh.0 in the loss. This marks the second time this season Philly have gotten the best of Josh.0, after winning 171.53-149.12 in their last matchup. Philly (9-4) will look to keep it rolling in the playoffs, while Josh.0 (7-6) will attempt to bounce back and make a run of their own in the postseason.

Coach Talk

Philly
Way to shrug off that two-game losing streak, Philly! Each fantasy team is hit with adversity at some point or another... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Josh.0
Listen, we've been in this business long enough to know that every once in a while, free points just seem to randomly appear out of thin air. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay; hoping for an additional 39 points may be a little much. Keep your head up, Josh.0!
