Kamara Sutra hand GloboGym Prpl Cobras third straight loss in 109.82-89.48 rout

Kamara Sutra cruised to a 109.82-89.48 victory to hand GloboGym Prpl Cobras their third consecutive loss. GloboGym Prpl Cobras took a 0.80-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Kamara Sutra after that. They were led by the New Orleans Saints defense, who allowed only 7 points, surrendered 196 yards, and intercepted 3 passes for 22 points, and Leonard Fournette, who racked up 141 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown (20.1 points). Cam Newton (357 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs) and Antonio Brown (5 Rec, 117 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) carried the flag for GloboGym Prpl Cobras in defeat. Kamara Sutra (6-5) will look to sustain their momentum against The Brady Bunch, while GloboGym Prpl Cobras (4-7) try to get some positive momentum against Donkey Punch.

Coach Talk

Kamara Sutra
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Kamara Sutra. Our quarterback was significantly outmatched by the opposition. Cam Newton went 25-of-37 for 357 yards and three touchdowns for GloboGym Prpl Cobras, and all Deshaun Watson could manage through the air was 208 yards and one passing TD (plus two ugly interceptions). Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 12!
GloboGym Prpl Cobras
Welp, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) collectively got a whopping 19 targets in Week 11. With just eight total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
