Rissell's Team stepped up, cruising to a 122.70-67.78 win over The Professor, who fell short of projections.

Rodgers passed for 325 yards and 2 touchdowns for 26.4 points, while Swift racked up 149 yards from scrimmage and caught a touchdown pass (23.4 points). Justin Herbert (187 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 10 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Davante Adams (8 Rec, 66 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) led the charge for The Professor in the loss. This marks the first time this season Rissell's Team have knocked off The Professor, after falling 134.8-92.5 in their last matchup. Rissell's Team (3-7) will look to add to their success against Jeremy's Team, while The Professor (6-4) will meet M7 in an effort to get back on track.

Coach Talk

Rissell's Team
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Case in point: we really emphasized that by royally dominating The Professor at running back this past week (51 points to 10.7).
The Professor
"Not seeing enough opportunities" is definitely not an excuse this week for The Professor. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 31 times in Week 10. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group recorded only 18 receptions.
