Unable to overcome starter's goose egg, HUGH JASSEL fall to Kookz in 158.10-133.28 landslide

Hampered by a goose egg from George Kittle, HUGH JASSEL were unable to overcome Kookz, which cruised to a 158.10-133.28 win. HUGH JASSEL leapt out to a 66.48-point lead on Thursday behind standout showings from Josh Allen, who passed for 297 yards , ran for 56 yards and scored 4 touchdowns for 39.48 points, and Gabe Davis, who caught 4 passes for 88 yards and a touchdown (18.8 points). But it was all Kookz after that. They were led by Patrick Mahomes (44.9 points) and the Tennessee Titans defense (27.5). Kookz (1-0) will look to sustain their winning ways against Boomkanani ◇, while HUGH JASSEL (0-1) will take on Detroit Lions in an effort to get back on track.
