Doc's Devils fall short of expectations, lose to LIONPWR, 251.55-188.50

There's no sugarcoating it, Doc's Devils underdelivered, at least according to projections, as LIONPWR emerged victorious with a 251.55-188.50 win. Doc's Devils leapt out to a 40.95-point lead on Thursday behind stellar performances from Daniel Jones, who passed for 249 yards , ran for 95 yards and scored 2 touchdowns for 33.95 points, and the Washington Football Team defense, who allowed 29 points and 391 yards (7 points). But LIONPWR held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Derrick Henry (47.7 points) and Tom Brady (42.4). LIONPWR (2-0) will look to earn another W against Stay Cappin, while Doc's Devils (1-1) will face Dirty 54 in an effort to get back on track.
