WhoDey defeated Demon Kids 135.12 to 124.88 to improve their season record to 3-0 against them. They improve to 16-1, while Demon Kids drops to 10-7. Lamar Jackson (168 Pas Yds, 87 Rsh Yds, 2 Pas TD, 1 Rsh TD) was the determining factor this week, putting up 29.42 points. Jackson continues to be a nice fourth-round pick for WhoDey and has played like a top-tier quarterback. This is the tightest victory for WhoDey in three head-to-head matchups. They beat Demon Kids 155.76 to 134.66 in Week 14 and again 163.92 to 131.32 in Week 5.
Demon Kids had one player that missed out on some opportunities. Despite being targeted seven times, Terry McLaurin could only reel in one catch. One spot where Demon Kids is wishing they could get a do-over is wide receiver. Demario Douglas could have started in place of Terry McLaurin, and that point difference would have changed the outcome.
