Mack's Dirtybirds got past Squiddington 145.50 to 137.88, led by Tee Higgins, who recorded the highest score by a player this week with 40.10 points. Mack's Dirtybirds took a 55.10-point lead on Thursday and remained in front for the rest of the matchup. Mack's Dirtybirds goes to 1-1 this season against Squiddington, avenging a Week 8 loss (154.80 to 146.68) the last time the teams met. Squiddington was led by Zach Ertz with 25.20 points (72 Rec Yds, 2 TD) and Sam Darnold, who scored 24.78 (377 Pas Yds, 3 TD/1 Int).
Squiddington had one glaring starter that missed out on some opportunities. Despite being targeted seven times, Terry McLaurin could only reel in one catch. One position where Squiddington really made a regrettable choice is wide receiver. Jerry Jeudy could have started in place of Terry McLaurin, and that point difference would've altered the outcome.
It wasn't all bad news for Squiddington, as they did field a team of real-life winners. Every starter except Chris Boswell suited up for a winning NFL team in Week 17.

Conversely, the losers had several players who struggled in the playoff spotlight, including Boswell and the Minnesota Vikings DEF.
