Deez find way to knock off Willy Wonka 84.64-67.04 despite coming up short of predictions

Both teams failed to bring their A game, falling short of their projected point totals, but Deez did enough to get the best of Willy Wonka, coming out on top with a 84.64-67.04 win. Deez leapt out to a 17.96-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind stellar showings from Travis Kelce and Alvin Kamara. Kelce caught 7 passes for 109 yards and 2 touchdowns for 22.9 points, while Kamara racked up 99 yards from scrimmage (11.9 points) and never looked back. Philip Rivers (256 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs) and Amari Cooper (10 Rec, 116 Rec Yds) were the leaders for Willy Wonka in the loss. Deez (2-0) will look to add to their success against 🏆🐲 KING KOOPA 🐲🏆, while Willy Wonka (0-2) face Slap The Chef in an effort to get their first win.
