El Tigre come back to knock off Destroyers in 410.40-405.85 squeaker

Full of promise, El Tigre dropped the ball, at least according to projections. Still, they rallied for a 410.40-405.85 win over Destroyers. El Tigre trailed 378.85-352.85 heading into Monday night, but the unit staged a comeback behind Derek Carr (196 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) and Denzel Perryman (12 Tackles). Daniel Jones (402 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 27 Rush Yds) and Jonathan Taylor (103 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 11 Rec Yds) led the way for Destroyers in the loss. El Tigre (2-2) will look to build on their success against Hello Titties, while Destroyers (2-2) attempt to get back on track against future flash.

Coach Talk

El Tigre
We're wondering if the GM of El Tigre was sweating bullets in this one? In a matchup that was ultimately decided by only 4.55 points, Daniel Carlson (0-of-1 on the day) decided that going 1-for-1 on field goals would've been just a bit too boring. Remember folks, every point matters!
Destroyers
Destroyers will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our five pass-catchers (three WR, two TE) collectively received a healthy 43 targets in Week 4. With only 24 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
