The Two Dogs aren't just wagging their tails anymore they're baring their teeth. In Week 4, one of the league's unbeaten squad improved to 4-0, outlasting 50 Shades of Great, 91-82, in a matchup that went down to the final whistle.
The heroes? Amon-Ra St. Brown, who acted like the sun god he's nicknamed after with 19 points on two touchdowns, and Matt Gay, who booted his way to an impressive 18 points. Toss in 12 more from the Eagles opportunistic defense, and Two Dogs once again proved they can score from anywhere.
On the other sideline, Travis Etienne was a workhorse for 50 Shades, bulldozing his way to 124 yards and a score for 20 points. Rookie Rome Odunze flashed star potential with a 69-yard, 1-TD line, while tight end Jake Ferguson chipped in 10. But it wasn't enough as Ja'Marr Chase disappeared in Denver (3 points) and the Packers D/ST looked more like Swiss cheese than cheddar (1 point), sealing Brian Powell's fate.
Studs & Duds
Stud of the Week: Matt Gay, because any kicker who outshines Travis Etienne deserves a game ball.
Dud of the Week: Packers D/ST's when you give up 40 and manage just one sack, that's a fantasy manager's nightmare.
The win keeps Two Dogs perfect at 4-0 and barking loud at the top of the standings, while 50 Shades of Great slides to 1-3 but shows flashes of potential. With Etienne looking like a star and Odunze emerging, brighter days could still be ahead.
