Mr& Mrs.Moore defy projections, defeat Willy Wonka in 97.26-60.48 rout
Mr& Mrs.Moore outperformed expectations, cruising to a 97.26-60.48 win over Willy Wonka, who fell short of projections. It didn't take long to figure out who would be the frontrunner in this one, as Mr& Mrs.Moore nabbed a 73.08-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind 60.46 points from Melvin Gordon III (132 Rush Yds, 3 Rush TDs, 18 Rec Yds) and Matt Ryan (354 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 13 Rush Yds). Stephen Gostkowski (5-5 FG, 50 long, 4-4 XP) and Philip Rivers (207 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) did their part for Willy Wonka in the loss. Mr& Mrs.Moore (3-3) will look to get another win against GD Team, while Willy Wonka (1-5) face 12368975.0 in an effort to right the ship.
Against the Browns in Week 6, Gordon III racked up 150 yards from scrimmage and ran for 3 touchdowns. In doing so, he put up 33 points and more-than-doubled his scoring projection, the highest percent increase of any player on Mr& Mrs.Moore this week. Gordon III will battle the Titans next week.
Sunday Early
There were players with standout moments on both teams early Sunday, after which Mr& Mrs.Moore had a 95.26-22.18 lead. Matt Ryan had a 35-yard touchdown pass for Mr& Mrs.Moore, while Emmanuel Sanders had a 22-yard touchdown catch. Philip Rivers made the highlight reel for Willy Wonka with a 45-yard touchdown pass and a 29-yard touchdown pass.
Sunday Night
Stephen Gostkowski had a 50-yard field goal for Willy Wonka, who trailed 95.26-60.48 after Sunday night.
Mr& Mrs.Moore
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Not only did we nearly triple Willy Wonka at RB (37.9 points to 12.9), we also utterly dominated them at WR (29.9 to 6.3).
Willy Wonka
Hey, it's possible that Willy Wonka would be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just 15 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
