Naked Bootlegs fall short of projections, lose to The Raptor, 206.30-181.95

Naked Bootlegs failed to rise to the occasion, as The Raptor secured a 206.30-181.95 victory. Naked Bootlegs took a 4.50-point lead on Thursday, but The Raptor held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Patrick Mahomes (295 Pass Yds, 4 Pass TDs, 52 Rush Yds) and Jameis Winston (249 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 48 Rush Yds). Todd Gurley II (132 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 33 Rec Yds) and Ben Roethlisberger (281 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) led the way for Naked Bootlegs in the loss.
