Demoni come up short of predictions, lose to Nikšica, 102-93

There's no way around it, Demoni underperformed, at least compared to projections, as Nikšica came from behind to earn a 102-93 victory. After trailing 93-77 heading into Monday night, Nikšica roared back behind Robert Woods, who caught 4 passes for 72 yards and a touchdown for 13 points, and Greg Zuerlein, who made both of his FG attempts (12 points). Saquon Barkley (142 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 10 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Philip Rivers (401 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) carried the flag for Demoni in defeat. Nikšica (4-7) will look to rack up another W against Državniposo, while Demoni (7-4) will attempt to develop some positive momentum against Alcatraz Jackals.

Coach Talk

Nikšica
Hey, we admire the confidence, Nikšica. It's a bold move to deploy a player with zero points (Demaryius Thomas), while still earning a win! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be finished.
Demoni
Fortunately, Demoni, this week's problem isn't exactly a brain teaser. Going with the Tennessee Titans defense in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied 102 points... let's do a little research ahead of time in Week 12.
