Moon Rabbits fall short of predictions, lose to Bad Boys, 121.40-109.35

Moon Rabbits were unable to bring their A game, falling short of their projected point total, as Bad Boys earned a 121.40-109.35 win. Moon Rabbits nabbed a 64.25-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind impressive showings from Patrick Mahomes, who passed for 377 yards and 2 touchdowns for 25.55 points, and Aaron Jones, who racked up 106 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown (19.6 points). But Bad Boys held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Christian McCaffrey, who racked up 101 yards from scrimmage and ran for 2 touchdowns for 28.1 points, and Ben Roethlisberger, who passed for 282 yards and 2 touchdowns (22.1 points). This marks the first time this season Bad Boys have gotten the best of Moon Rabbits, after falling 112.55-94.1 in their last matchup. Bad Boys will look to not lose that winning feeling in next week's semifinals, while Moon Rabbits attempt to bounce back and lock up 5th Place.

Coach Talk

Bad Boys
Innovative play design and countless hours in the film room. Blood, sweat, and tears in practice. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Every single route, every single pass, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. The outcome? A staggering 25 connections on 29 attempts: good enough for a completion percentage of 86% for Ben Roethlisberger this past week. The Raiders secondary didn't know what hit 'em!.
Moon Rabbits
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a whopping 31 targets in Week 14. With only 15 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
