Peyton's Puss eaters come up short of projections, succumb to Nick's Perfect Team in 134.28-83.60 beatdown

Peyton's Puss eaters underachieved compared to their projected point total, as Nick's Perfect Team cruised to a 134.28-83.60 win. Peyton's Puss eaters grabbed a 17.30-point lead on Thursday behind an impressive performance from Patrick Mahomes (235 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs). But it was all Nick's Perfect Team after that. They were led by Kyler Murray, who passed for 277 yards , ran for 28 yards and scored 2 touchdowns for 26.88 points, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense, who allowed only 10 points, surrendered 308 yards, and forced 5 turnovers (26 points). Nick's Perfect Team (2-0) will look to keep it rolling against Almighty Push, while Peyton's Puss eaters (1-1) match up against I Got This in an effort to get back in the win column.
