Victorious Secrets smirk at projections, earn win over RGK Lily in 130-87 rout
Victorious Secrets showed up and beat their projected point total, cruising to a 130-87 win over RGK Lily, who fell short of projections. RGK Lily took a 1-point lead early Sunday afternoon, but it was all Victorious Secrets after that. They were led by Amari Cooper (10 Rec, 217 Rec Yds, 3 Rec TDs) and Deshaun Watson (267 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 35 Rush Yds). Rob Gronkowski (8 Rec, 107 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Drew Brees (201 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD) did their part for RGK Lily in defeat. This marks the second time this season Victorious Secrets have taken down RGK Lily, after winning 133-69 in their last matchup. Victorious Secrets will look to keep the streak alive in next week's semifinal round, while RGK Lily attempt to rebound and finish the season with a win in the 5th Place game.
Cooper overachieved for the fourth time this season, scoring 45 points against his 8.68-point projection. In a 29-23 win over the Eagles, he caught 10 passes for 217 yards and 3 touchdowns. Cooper ranks #59 among all fantasy players this season and will face the Colts next week.

Victorious Secrets
Nice work assembling a starting crew that accounted for 130 points this past week. We did what was needed and took care of business. Let's maintain this momentum as we move on to our Week 15 matchup.
RGK Lily
"Four score and seven points ago, our players brought forth, upon this fantasy matchup..." Wait, that's not how it goes (and unfortunately for us, not all fantasy teams are created equal). The 87 points our crew managed weren't enough to get the win this week. Continue pushing forward, RGK Lily, for as the great Abraham Lincoln once said: "You cannot fail unless you quit."
