QB PARTY vs. Ace Trumpets: Two Assets, One Deadline

The CTU operations floor is unusually quiet. A completed score sits on one monitor. Two remaining players occupy another. Chloe studies the numbers. Jack asks how much time they have. For Brian McElroy’s QB PARTY, the answer is one Monday-night game—and 34.14 points to recover. William Black’s Ace Trumpets has completed its operation at 126.94. It wasn’t a flawless mission, but enough personnel reached their objectives to establish a defensible position. Matthew Golden delivered 24.4 points, Bryce Young supplied 21.84, and Xavier Worthy added 14.3. George Pickens contributed 13.3, while Brock Bowers and Ka’imi Fairbairn supplied 11.0 apiece. There were vulnerabilities. Kyren Williams managed 9.7, Kendre Miller 9.0, and the Rams defense 2.0. This wasn’t an impenetrable security perimeter. It was a serviceable one waiting to discover whether the opposing quarterback had the access codes.

QB PARTY’s most effective field operative has been Germie Bernard, with 25.7 points. Carnell Tate added 19.0, Alvin Kamara 14.9, and Chris Olave 14.3. Nico Collins supplied 10.9. Then communications broke down. MarShawn Lloyd contributed 1.0, and Juwan Johnson finished with 0.0. Jack would demand to know how two assigned assets produced one combined point. Nobody in the briefing room would volunteer to answer. Now Brock Purdy and Eddy Piñeiro carry the entire rescue attempt. They must combine for more than 34.14 points to give McElroy an outright victory. The displayed projections put QB PARTY at 126.0, just behind Ace’s 126.94. A projected gap of less than one point. Two remaining players. No room for a wasted possession or an unproductive kicking opportunity.

Black can only watch. His team has submitted its final report; McElroy still has personnel in the field. This is the part of 24 where somebody declares the threat contained and Jack refuses to leave the building. Ace Trumpets has the lead. QB PARTY still has the clock.

Diamond dogs vs. Make My Team Win Again: Extraction Pending

Five failed operations. No successful extraction. An increasingly uncomfortable relationship between the mission statement and the results. For Gentry Radwanski’s Make My Team Win Again, this assignment has finally produced something resembling good intelligence. The winless team has completed its scoring at 142.26, leaving Kevin Ware’s Diamond dogs 32.54 points behind with two players remaining. Nobody at CTU is authorized to celebrate yet. Tyler Shough delivered 29.96 points, giving Gentry a quarterback performance that required no creative explanation in the debrief. Jonathan Taylor added 21.1, DeVonta Smith supplied 20.5, and Emeka Egbuka contributed 17.8. Luther Burden III added 17.5, while Keon Coleman supplied 15.9. Six players reached at least 15 points—a substantial improvement over an operation that previously seemed to lose contact with half its personnel.

There were still complications. Harold Fannin Jr. managed 1.9, and the Eagles defense 2.0. But this time the productive departments generated enough momentum to survive the weak links. Diamond dogs has mounted its response through Bhayshul Tuten’s 24.7, D’Andre Swift’s 23.0, and Kirk Cousins’ 22.52. Dalton Kincaid added 10.8, but Bijan Robinson’s 7.3 and Garrett Wilson’s 8.4 left Ware needing a stronger final wave. Cam Little contributed 9.0, and the Jets defense 4.0. The remaining assets are Terry McLaurin and Mike Evans. They must combine for more than 32.54 points to overturn Gentry’s lead. The displayed projection has Diamond dogs reaching 137.7, short of the 142.26 target.

That gives Make My Team Win Again a credible route to its first victory. It also leaves two accomplished receivers with an opportunity to make the final hour deeply unpleasant. Jack would insist the extraction team remain in position. Chloe would keep refreshing the feed. Gentry, meanwhile, has spent five weeks waiting for permission to enjoy a scoreboard. The helicopter is approaching. He should probably wait until it actually lands.

Derek v Doug

Hate Us Cause They Ain’t Us vs. Team DuShuttle: One Man Left in the Field

The command center has exhausted its options. Most of the team is finished. The deficit remains substantial. Then somebody mentions there is still one operative available. In 24, that is usually when the situation becomes Jack Bauer’s problem. For Doug DuShuttle, the remaining operative is Christian McCaffrey. Derek Chimner’s Hate Us Cause They Ain’t Us has finished at 114.08, leaving DuShuttle 32.56 points behind. The target is fixed. The final assignment is not subtle. Chimner’s operation depended heavily on three productive departments: James Cook III delivered 24.3, Isaiah Likely supplied 23.9, and Colston Loveland added 18.5. Together, they generated 66.7 points, keeping an otherwise uneven mission from collapsing. Patrick Mahomes contributed 10.48, Christian Watson 9.4, and Devaughn Vele 7.2. Those were useful additions, but hardly the overwhelming support CTU prefers when securing a perimeter. Rhamondre Stevenson managed 3.6, A.J. Brown 5.7, and the Seahawks defense 2.0. Chimner has a lead, but nobody should confuse it with an airtight containment plan.

DuShuttle’s response has been led by DK Metcalf’s 20.3. Drake London supplied 12.2, Dak Prescott 12.02, and Jaylen Warren 9.8. Travis Kelce added 9.3. Then came the losses in operational capacity: Davante Adams produced 6.9, and Cam Skattebo 0.0. That left McCaffrey being asked to recover ground several teammates had failed to cover. He needs more than 32.56 points for an outright win. The displayed projection puts DuShuttle at 103.3, below Chimner’s completed total. It is a demanding assignment, requiring McCaffrey to exceed an ordinary productive evening by a meaningful margin. But the player remaining is exactly the sort who makes a manager hesitate before closing the case.

Chimner can’t add reinforcements. DuShuttle can’t change the objective. One running back. One game. One number. Jack would already be driving toward the stadium. Doug is settling for refreshing the app.

Carl v Mike

Team Carl vs. I QUIT: Mission Compromised

The satellite feed freezes on the final scoreboard. There is no hidden asset waiting for activation. No additional hour in which Chloe can locate another scoring opportunity. Everyone has completed their assignment. For Michael Carnicelli’s I QUIT, the operation is over. Carl Pawsat’s Team Carl won 153.5–110.84, a 42.66-point victory built on stronger contributions across several crucial positions. Malik Nabers led the mission with 30.5 points, while Drake Maye delivered 26.8. Chuba Hubbard supplied 21.1, and Keenan Allen added 16.2. CeeDee Lamb contributed 16.0, giving Carl five players with at least 16 points. This was an operation with multiple reliable routes to its objective. Lose contact with one unit, and another could still complete the assignment. Trey McBride added 12.3, Harrison Butker 11.0, and the Chiefs defense 8.0. Emanuel Wilson’s 5.2 and Jaylen Waddle’s 6.4 were manageable setbacks rather than reasons to evacuate headquarters.

I QUIT had a productive lead operative in Kenneth Walker III, who delivered 29.9. Jordan Love added 21.24, Javonte Williams contributed 13.0, and Puka Nacua supplied 14.0. But the supporting network couldn’t keep pace. Braelon Allen finished with 12.4, Michael Wilson 7.2, and KC Concepcion 7.9. Kenyon Sadiq supplied 2.2, the Texans defense 2.0, and Brandon Aubrey 1.0. Those last three positions combined for 5.2 points. Chloe could reroute every available server and still struggle to find the missing production. The receiving comparison was particularly damaging. Carl’s Nabers, Lamb, and Waddle combined for 52.9, while Carnicelli’s Wilson, Nacua, and Concepcion produced 29.1—a 23.8-point difference across those three slots. Walker’s strong performance kept I QUIT supplied with one effective weapon. Carl had enough personnel to control the wider mission.

Both lineups are finished. The screenshot’s records provide the entering context, but this completed matchup belongs decisively to Carl. There will be a debrief. There will be difficult questions. Someone may suggest that the team name is creating an unfavorable atmosphere inside headquarters. For now, Carl gets the successful mission report. Carnicelli gets asked to remain on the line.

Jack v Chris

Hakeem Nicks is Real vs. Purdy Young Things: Protect the Perfect Record

A perfect record is the kind of asset CTU would place behind three security doors, two biometric checkpoints, and one employee who eventually turns out to be suspicious. Christopher Shoemaker’s Purdy Young Things has completed its scoring at 118.8. The undefeated season now depends on whether Jack Cassady’s final two players can breach the perimeter. Hakeem Nicks is Real trails by 40.8 points, with Jayden Daniels and George Kittle still to play. This was not Purdy’s most overwhelming operation. Jaxon Smith-Njigba delivered 27.4, and Josh Allen supplied 20.3. Jalen Coker added 15.7, while Zay Flowers contributed 12.7 and Woody Marks 10.1. Those performances established a defensible position, but several assignments produced limited returns. Bucky Irving managed 6.9, Derrick Henry 5.0, and the Ravens defense another 5.0. Tucker Kraft supplied 8.7, and Jason Myers finished with 7.0. There was enough to complete the mission’s first phase. Whether it was enough to survive the final hour remains unresolved.

Cassady’s completed lineup has been led by Ashton Jeanty’s 15.8, Tetairoa McMillan’s 14.6, and Blake Corum’s 14.0. Romeo Doubs added 11.2, while the Steelers defense supplied 9.0. But Denzel Boston’s 2.5, Tyler Loop’s 3.0, and Omarion Hampton’s 7.9 left two remaining players responsible for a substantial recovery. Daniels and Kittle must combine for more than 40.8 points to win outright. The displayed projection has Hakeem Nicks is Real finishing at 115.0, just 3.8 short of Purdy’s completed total. That is close enough for every completion, reception, and scoring opportunity to feel like a new development on the operations floor.

Shoemaker has no personnel left to deploy. Cassady still has a quarterback and a tight end—two assets capable of making the final report look very different from the current screen. The 5–0 record is secure only until the remaining action says otherwise. Chloe keeps the feed live. Nobody leaves headquarters yet.
