Last Man Standing fall to RT17 in 460.14-308.23 rout

There's no easy way to put it, Last Man Standing underperformed, at least compared to projections, as RT17 cruised to a 460.14-308.23 win. RT17 pulled out to an 89.7-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind Tua Tagovailoa (98.93 points) and Carson Wentz (64.31) and never gave it back. Jaylen Waddle (87.2 points) and James Robinson (52.47) were the top scorers for Last Man Standing in defeat. RT17 (2-0) will look to keep it rolling against tardy perch, while Last Man Standing (0-2) will meet GREEN LEGION in an effort to get back on track.

Coach Talk

RT17
Nice job deploying a lineup that accounted for more than 460 points this past week. We deem that to be a job well done. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Last Man Standing, take this victory in stride, and continue our march towards the Ocean league title.
Last Man Standing
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 31 times in Week 2. With only 16 total catches, this group may have some chemistry issues.
