Next Week Preview

Redlegs
With Redlegs and Warm Bodies both now riding three-game losing streaks, something's got to give in Week 10. Each side has players on bye next week, as Joe Burrow, Hunter Henry, Ty Johnson, DeVante Parker, and Ja'Marr Chase are off for Warm Bodies while Evan McPherson and the Cincinnati Bengals defense will be out for Redlegs.
Mutinous Apes
Mutinous Apes (5-4) are set to go up against Hooligans (4-5) in a Week 10 matchup between teams separated by just a game in the standings.

In terms of scoring production, these two squads have almost been mirror images of each other lately. Mutinous Apes have put up 137.3 points per game over the last three weeks, while Hooligans have averaged 137.08 per contest over that same stretch.
