Roadrunner come up short of predictions, succumb to Bob's Big Blue in 121.11-91.79 rout

There's no easy way to say it, Roadrunner underdelivered, at least based on projections, as Bob's Big Blue cruised to a 121.11-91.79 win. Roadrunner earned a 3.40-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Bob's Big Blue after that. They were led by Carson Wentz (27.1 points) and Aaron Jones (18.67). Patrick Mahomes (29.55 points) and Austin Ekeler (16.47) did their part for Roadrunner in defeat. This marks the second time this season Bob's Big Blue have gotten the best of Roadrunner, after winning 115.3-112.86 in their last matchup. Bob's Big Blue will look to keep it going in next week's semifinal round, while Roadrunner attempt to bounce back and finish the season with a win.

Coach Talk

Bob's Big Blue
Nice work deploying a lineup that produced more than 121 points this past week. We did what was needed and took care of business. We should tip our cap to the GM of Roadrunner, take this win in stride, and continue on our way towards a fantasy title.
Roadrunner
So, Roadrunner, what did your wideouts do to annoy their quarterbacks this week? Seeing just 10 total targets in Week 14, our three wide receivers clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
