Buttkickers hand Big TD Committee fourth consecutive loss in 94.29-89.40 battle

Buttkickers squeaked by for a 94.29-89.40 win to hand Big TD Committee their fourth straight loss to open the season. It wasn't nearly as close as the final score indicates, as Buttkickers led 91.29-54.75 heading into Monday night. Big TD Committee made it interesting behind the San Francisco 49ers defense (9 Pts Allowed, 257 Yds Allowed, 2 Turnovers) and Tyler Higbee (10 Rec, 73 Rec Yds). Buttkickers were led by Patrick Mahomes (249 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 34 Rush Yds) and the New York Giants defense (12 Pts Allowed, 304 Yds Allowed, 3 Turnovers). Buttkickers (3-1) will look to notch another W against SouthPaw Shark, while Big TD Committee (0-4) will meet Music City Madman in an effort to develop some positive momentum.
