Offensively challenged Sandbagging come back to knock off Play, 94.56-84.82

Sandbagging rallied to earn a 94.56-84.82 victory over Play in spite of posting only the 13th-highest point total in the league for the week. After trailing 82.90-58.80 heading into Monday night, Sandbagging roared back behind Justin Fields, who passed for 179 yards , ran for 82 yards and scored 2 touchdowns for 26.36 points, and Jakobi Meyers, who caught 2 passes for 34 yards and a touchdown (9.4 points). The Dallas Cowboys defense (25 points) and Jason Sanders (10) did their part for Play in defeat. Sandbagging (4-3) will look to keep it rolling against Old Leather Balls, while Play (2-5) will try to develop some positive momentum against Sayers Monsters.
