With minutes to play in the Monday night game, the winner of the game and our league was very much in doubt. The Chiefs win was enough to give me a one-point win over Trent.
My team scored a 346, thanks to a lineup featuring Mahomes, Burrow, Taylor, D. Williams, Booker, Kupp, D. Johnson, Pittman and Gonzalez.
Trent posted a 345, thanks to a roster led by J. Allen, Burrows, Taylor, Hubbard, Booker, Kupp, Woods, Gonzalez and the Bills D.
This is my second weekly win in the past three weeks, while Trent earns his third pay day of the 2021 season. Congrats to Trent on his strong showing.
