Boomtown Brawlers fall short of expectations, lose to Nightmares in 127.55-77.15 drubbing

There's no easy way to say it, Boomtown Brawlers dropped the ball, at least based on projections, as Nightmares cruised to a 127.55-77.15 win.

They were led by Stefon Diggs (8 Rec, 162 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Jalen Hurts (178 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 53 Rush Yds). Najee Harris (105 Rush Yds, 28 Rec Yds) and Kyle Pitts (4 Rec, 60 Rec Yds) were the top scorers for Boomtown Brawlers in defeat.
