Diontae Johnson (acquired via trade in Week 6) and Chase Claypool (acquired via free agency in Week 6) made a big impact, posting 23.10 and 15.90 points, respectively. The gap could have been wider as Amparo Bikers had a starter score zero points (Hayden Hurst).

Kalen Ballage had plenty of chances for Amparo Bikers, but he logged just 71 total yards on 23 touches.

While Diontae Johnson led Amparo Bikers with 23.60 points last week, Woods paced the squad this week with 30.60.

Next week, Amparo Bikers gets Indaiatuba Blues (5-6, 1,174.46), while London Knights faces Rio Claro Farmers (8-3, 1,250.02).

The Minnesota WR scored two touchdowns and contributed 32.30 points to the total. With the New England Patriots DEF delivering zero points for Goncalves Miners, the result might have been even worse.
