FINAL SCORE: Rhodes 120.7, Daleske 104.4

One of the uglier matches of the week, Sodo Mojo readers Ben Rhodes and Jim Daleske struggled to reach the finish line. Rhodes ultimately came out the victor, with some help from some poor lineup management by Daleske.

Unfortunately for Daleske, he clearly didn’t get the memo that Le’Veon Bell is at odds with the Steelers. Daleske, who selected Bell first overall, left the running back in his starting lineup though he never even showed up to the facility.

Pair that with a zero point performance from Charles Clay and that spelled doom for Daleske. However, he was still able to crack 100 points with great outings from Mike Evans (27.7), Demaryius Thomas (18.3), and the Baltimore Ravens defense (17).

It wouldn’t be enough, though, as Kirk Cousins (20.4) and Kenny Stills (26.6) carried Rhodes to the win. The biggest assist, of course, came from the Bell mishap, though. Sometimes that’s all you need to get in the win column.
