And Coach Patrick just couldn't find any star players this week and couldn't get close to enough points to supplant Nick.

Star Players:

HL3	Tyreek Hill	WR	KC	39.2 pts from 142 yds; 3 TD; 7/12 REC
HL3	Melvin Gordon	RB	LAC	35.0 pts from 150 yds; 3 TD; 18 RUNS

Coach Brandon put up a huge score this week and handed Coach Skyler his second loss of the season. Congratulations Coach Brandon!

Coach Skyler's teem seemed to do overall very poorly this week. Hope next week is better Skyler!

The Jags' defense let Kristin down with a 7-40 score against the Cowboys this weekend, leaving Kristin wondering where the football went. Answer: to the Cowboys end zone. Sorry Stefon Diggs (WR for Blake), better luck next week.

PROJECTED SCORE: 127.0 - 80.6

Despite having a glut of under-performing players and only 1 star player, Coach Brandon still managed to defeat Coach TJ. Coach Brandon fixing up his team for a respectable victory over Coach TJ:

Coach TJ, despite having 2 players score 0 points, still had a fighting chance with Russell Wilson and Devante Adams putting up impressive scores. But they couldn't quite turn around this team's performance this week:
