Despite top scorer Jackson, Kingslayer fall to Henry Hardman in 187.52-160.18 drubbing

Kingslayer had the premier scorer in the matchup with RB Justin Jackson posting 35.2 points, the fifth-highest total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to defeat Henry Hardman, who cruised to a 187.52-160.18 victory. Kingslayer leapt out to a 42.10-point lead on Thursday behind standout performances from A.J. Brown, who caught 11 passes for 145 yards and a touchdown for 31.5 points, and Jeff Wilson Jr., who racked up 57 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown (14.7 points). But Henry Hardman held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Davante Adams (10 Rec, 114 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs) and Patrick Mahomes (258 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs). This marks the first time this season Henry Hardman have taken down Kingslayer, after falling 134.56-120.1 in their last matchup.

Coach Talk

Henry Hardman
Props to you, Henry Hardman. Nice work assembling a lineup that blew the opponent out by more than 27 points in Week 16.
Kingslayer
"Not seeing many opportunities" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Kingslayer. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 37 times in Week 16. With just 20 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
