Despite top scorer Thielen, Robert's Team fall to Daniel's Team, 119.82-112.14

Robert's Team had the premier scorer in the matchup with WR Adam Thielen accumulating 24.8 points, the seventh-highest total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to topple Daniel's Team, who secured a 119.82-112.14 win. Daniel's Team took a 70.22-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind impressive showings from DeAndre Hopkins (6 Rec, 131 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Tyreek Hill (15 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 78 Rec Yds) and never looked back. Adam Thielen (24.8 points) and Derrick Henry (18.8) were the leading performers for Robert's Team in the loss. Daniel's Team (2-3) will look to add to their success against Jack's Team, while Robert's Team (3-2) meet Greg's Majestic Team in an effort to get back in the win column.

Coach Talk

Daniel's Team
Talk about righting the ship! The GM of Daniel's Team shrugged off their three-game losing skid by logging a tremendous 119.82 points this past week.
Robert's Team
Posting one reception on only two measly targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for Robert's Team should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
