While Freedom put up plenty of points on Friday, the same can't be said for McDowell. The Patriots really took it to the Titans for the full four quarters, racking up a 41-0 win. Considering the Patriots have won seven games by more than 21 points this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.

Kaden Davis produced another solid performance throwing for 175 yards and a pair of TDs while completing 80% of his passes, and also rushing for 55 yards and one score on only six carries. Freedom's leading receiver Juju Dominguez was Davis' top target yet again, picking up 61 receiving yards, while also rushing for 66 yards.

Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Freedom proved: they limited McDowell to a paltry 3.1 yards per carry. The team can thank Nevan Thao for the heroic effort on defense: he. Freedom didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 9.8.

Freedom's defense didn't let Danny Charles Brown, get away unscathed either: they got into the backfield for four sacks. McDowell's QB won't forget Thao anytime soon given he sacked him twice.

The victory was the fourth in a row for Freedom, bringing their record up to 9-1. The wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 14.0 points on average over those games. As for McDowell, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 5-5.

Freedom will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Central Cabarrus at 7:00 p.m. on the 14th. The two teams might be coming in a bit winded given these two teams combined for 860 yards in their previous games. As for McDowell, they didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next matchup, a 68-0 loss against Page on the 7th.
