Roughnecks lose to Dirty Hippies in 171.05-114.55 runaway
There's no way around it, Roughnecks dropped the ball, at least compared to projections, as Dirty Hippies rolled to a 171.05-114.55 win. Dirty Hippies earned an early 9.50-point lead on Thursday. Roughnecks came back to take the lead during the early games on Sunday, powered by Josh Allen (22.45 points) and JuJu Smith-Schuster (16.4). Not to be deterred, Dirty Hippies made a run later that afternoon, as Kyler Murray (43.1 points) and Cordarrelle Patterson (25.25) put them back on top once and for all. Dirty Hippies (2-0) will look to maintain their momentum against Norman Nobodies, while Roughnecks (1-1) will try to get back in the win column against DARC NARC.
Patterson (11 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 58 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) scored 25.25 points against the Buccaneers in Week 2. His scoring output more-than-tripled his 7.57-point projection. Patterson ranks #60 among all fantasy players this season and will face the Giants next week.
