CircleTheWagons come up short of predictions, lose to The mystery machine in 110.98-109.34 thriller
There's no sugarcoating it, CircleTheWagons underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as The mystery machine rallied to earn a 110.98-109.34 win. The mystery machine trailed 92.34-81.50 heading into Monday night, but the team roared back behind Justin Herbert, who passed for 222 yards and 3 touchdowns for 21.28 points, and Josh Jacobs, who racked up 57 yards from scrimmage (8.2 points). Saquon Barkley (52 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 74 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Lamar Jackson (316 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 28 Rush Yds) did everything they could for CircleTheWagons in defeat. The mystery machine (3-1) will look to get another win against Danny's Dandy Team, while CircleTheWagons (2-2) will attempt to get back on track against Gridiron Gladiators.
While catching 5 passes for 56 yards and a touchdown against the Chiefs, Goedert scored 14.1 points this week. His scoring output nearly doubled his 7.22-point projection and was much higher than his 9.33-point season scoring average. Goedert ranks #7 among fantasy TEs this season and will face the Panthers next week.
