Puka Nacua brings the goods in a game against Not Dead Yet

Coach Steve Pintar has had the most stable lineup in the league, and this week that stability paid off. He started Rhamondre Stevenson instead of Ollie Gordon II, despite the experts' prediction that Gordon II should have played.

This decision netted Coach Pintar an extra 11 points and was the difference in the game, as Sack Attack (5 – 4) had just enough against Not Dead Yet (4 – 5), winning 127 to 118.

Sack Attack had plenty of players step up in the win, as six starters beat their positional averages. Puka Nacua was just a bit ahead of the others, recording 23 points.1 Nacua set his high mark for the season with that effort. He leapt up to make this critical 4th quarter touchdown grab.

Meanwhile, Not Dead Yet can place the blame for this loss squarely on Aaron Jones, who managed only 1 point. Jones has now been the worst performing starter in the league over the last three weeks.

Next week, Sack Attack will be playing Big Dog Sports. That team will limp into next week's game having posted less than 85 points each of the last two games. Sack Attack will have to play without D'Andre Swift, who has a bye week.

Meanwhile, Not Dead Yet will get a chance to avenge the largest loss that any team has suffered this season (90 points) when they rematch against Juggernauts next week. Coach Patrick O'Dell will no doubt be worried that Joe Burrow will drop another 61 points for Juggernauts like he did last time.
