FOXBOROUGH, MA—Leagues across the country are still reeling from an exciting and eventful weekend of Fantasy Football.
The highly anticipated match-up between the Packers and Patriots Sunday ended with an underwhelming score and some disappointed Aaron Rodgers fans, as the Green Bay quarterback faced a setback at the hands of a New England dark wizard. Early in the fourth quarter, the magician appeared suddenly on the field and cursed Rodgers, who then shrunk and transformed into a toadstool at the 30-yard line. Healers have been unsuccessful so far in returning Rodgers to his human form but are hopeful he'll be back to normal in time for next week's home game against the Miami Dolphins.
More misfortune plagued the Broncos in their game against the Texans as a band of goblins stormed the field at the end of the fourth quarter. No injuries were reported, but the ruckus caused Denver kicker Brandon McManus to miss what would have been the game-winning field goal. Officials declined to flag the play, as "that's just the nature of the game."
Elsewhere, the Saints pulled off an exciting win at home against the Rams as running back Alvin Kamara rode a silver unicorn for 82 yards and two out of his three touchdowns for the game. It is still not completely understood where the mythical equid originated, but it dazzled fans of both teams before dissolving into a sparkly puff of smoke.
Things are sure to stay magical in the coming weeks of Fantasy Football, where you never quite know what could happen!
