Back-and-forth battle ends with LeonBoss coming back to knock off John's Wide Receiver in 135.5-103.5 blowout

Well, that was thrilling! After a back-and-forth matchup featuring three lead changes, LeonBoss earned an easy win over John's Wide Receiver, rolling to a 135.5-103.5 victory.

LeonBoss came back to take the lead during the late games on Sunday, powered by Joe Burrow (26.5 points) and the Dallas Cowboys defense (16). Not to be deterred, John's Wide Receiver pulled it together later that night to take a 2.1-point lead behind Keenan Allen (11.4 points) and Kadarius Toney (0.2). But LeonBoss came back again at the last minute on Monday night, as DeAndre Hopkins (18.1 points) and Brandon Aiyuk (16) put them back ahead once and for all. LeonBoss (6-5) will look to earn another W against Tatanka, while John's Wide Receiver (5-6) attempt to right the ship against Jerkson.
