A primetime comeback on both Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football wasn't enough for Harvey's Putzwadlers. They had 43.05 points on SNF and 51.50 on MNF (combining to be 52% of their total score), but Turd Ferg still earned the 183.05 to 182.95 victory.

Turd Ferg was led by Tee Higgins this week (131 Rec Yds, 3 TD). Higgins scored three touchdowns and contributed 43.10 points in the tight matchup. Bo Nix also helped the cause with 32.05 points by getting three passing touchdowns (219 Pas Yds, 31 Rsh Yds, 3 TD/1 Int). Turd Ferg had the highest overall score of the week, while also recording the slimmest margin of victory in the league this season.
De'Von Achane had plenty of chances for Turd Ferg, but he logged just 38 total yards on 12 touches.
With 12 targets this week for Higgins, it means that his targets have now increased in three consecutive games.
