Similar to the tune of the 2023 season, the secret to success for the Royals is through their offense and signal caller Jaylon Henderson. Just to show how dominant Potsdam has been, they are the only team to score 50+ points in each of their games this season and are averaging 61points a game. The QB/WR duo of Jaylon Henderson and Brenden Beaulieu has been dominating the league so far. Through their four games, Henderson and Beaulieu have connected for 11 scores and 582 yards. Henderson is also the GFL leader in passing touchdowns (29), yards per game (409.8) and completion percentage with an absurd 82.9%.
