Leader of the PACK fall short of expectations, succumb to PJ, 178.5-158.0

There's no sugarcoating it, Leader of the PACK underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as PJ secured a 178.5-158.0 victory. Leader of the PACK took a 6.4-point lead on Thursday, but PJ held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Ryan Tannehill, who passed for 270 yards and a touchdown for 49.1 points, and Derrick Henry, who racked up 107 yards from scrimmage (18.2 points). Deebo Samuel (7 Rec, 100 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Kyle Pitts (7 Rec, 163 Rec Yds) did everything they could for Leader of the PACK in the loss. PJ (5-2) will look to build on their success against Outlaws, while Leader of the PACK (5-2) will face off against BIGGEE_DOWNWRAIDERS_4LIFE in an effort to get back in the win column.
