There's no sugarcoating it, Marc's Genius Team didn't do their job, at least according to projections, as Baltimore crabcakes cruised to a 261-156 victory. Baltimore crabcakes pulled out to a 6-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind Alexander Mattison (36 points) and Mike Davis (19) and never looked back. Justin Fields (111 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD) and the Baltimore Ravens defense (25 Pts Allowed, 513 Yds Allowed, 1 Turnovers) were the leaders for Marc's Genius Team in defeat. Baltimore crabcakes (2-3) will look to rack up another win against Jackson Dragoons, while Marc's Genius Team (2-3) will try to get back in the win column against DAK THAT A$$ UP!.

Baltimore crabcakes
