Game Recap

It seems as though the Memphis Monsters are doing something right these days. After a long few weeks of consecutive losses the Monsters have secured their 2nd win a row, crushing the Honolulu Megalodons into complete extinction this past week with a win of 152.10 to 135.12. The Megalodons did what they could to keep the score close, even gaining the point lead nearly all of Sunday, only to lose it when Monster’s RB Melvin Gordon rushed a total of 111 yards, securing the win. Memphis Quarterback Kirk Cousins did his part to carry the team to success this week with 38 connecting passes and 2 touchdowns. All in all, the Monsters seem to be getting stronger and stronger.
