Warm Bodies fall to Redlegs in 167.75-143.45 landslide

There's no easy way to put it, Warm Bodies underperformed, at least compared to projections, as Redlegs rolled to a 167.75-143.45 win. Warm Bodies nabbed a 44.4-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind a combined 30.2 points from Nick Chubb (95 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Damien Harris (62 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD). But it was all Redlegs after that. They were led by Aaron Rodgers (255 Pass Yds, 4 Pass TDs) and Tyler Lockett (8 Rec, 178 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD). Redlegs (1-1) will look to maintain their winning ways against Negligent Discharges, while Warm Bodies (0-2) will attempt to get back on track against Rebel Alliance.
