The Washington QB heated up for 43.05 points in a 22.70-point triumph for Dickers Nuts. He passed for three touchdowns as part of his showcase performance (227 Pas Yds, 127 Rsh Yds, 3 TD/1 Int). With Hunter Henry delivering zero points for Dickers Nuts, the result might have been even worse.

First and Goal had one noteworthy player that missed out on opportunities. Despite being targeted seven times, Terry McLaurin could only reel in one catch.

With 33 touches this week for Saquon Barkley, it means that his touches have now increased in three consecutive games.

Dickers Nuts wrapped up the regular season in sixth place with a record of 6-8. Better than their record indicated, they ranked third in the league in points per game with 138.07. They played in a pair of previous postseason games this year on their trail to the title. In their last game, Dickers Nuts took down AngryEye, 170.50 to 120.30. The week before, they beat Sheik Yerbouti, 136.20 to 129.40. First and Goal concluded the regular season in first place with a record of 11-3. Their record was a bit misleading, as they ranked just fifth in the league in scoring average at 133.56 points per game. Following an opening-round playoff bye, First and Goal snuck by Scratch Me Because MYBALZICH, 153.00 to 150.45.
