Despite top scorer Chubb, Spoon fall to Hakuna Matata in 77.5-77.0 duel

Spoon had the premier scorer in the matchup with RB Nick Chubb accumulating 24 points, the fourth-highest total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to defeat Hakuna Matata, who came from behind for a 77.5-77.0 victory. Hakuna Matata trailed 67.0-38.0 heading into Monday night, but the team came storming back behind Josh Allen (16.5 points) and Tyler Bass (12). Nick Chubb (87 Rush Yds, 3 Rush TDs, 26 Rec Yds) and the Los Angeles Rams defense (27 Pts Allowed, 261 Yds Allowed, 3 Turnovers) carried the flag for Spoon in the loss. Hakuna Matata (2-0) will look to add to their success against Philly Phresh, while Spoon (0-2) meet London Gentlemen in an effort to right the ship.
