Agent fall short of projections, succumb to Fantasy Suite in 116.90-80.51 rout

There's no easy way to put it, Agent didn't do their job, at least according to projections, as Fantasy Suite cruised to a 116.90-80.51 victory. Agent grabbed a 4.00-point lead on Thursday, but Fantasy Suite held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by DeAndre Hopkins (34 points) and Deshaun Watson (21.4). Davante Adams (17.9 points) and Ben Roethlisberger (14.53) led the charge for Agent in the loss. This marks the first time this season Fantasy Suite have knocked off Agent, after falling 140.19-114.48 in their last matchup. Fantasy Suite will look to not lose that winning feeling in the Championship next week, while Agent seek to bounce back and finish the season with a win in the 3rd Place game.

Coach Talk

Fantasy Suite
Bravo on deploying a lineup that recorded nearly 117 points this past week. We did what we needed to do and took care of business. We should keep this momentum going as we step into our Week 16 matchup.
Agent
"Not getting many opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for Agent. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 20 targets in Week 15. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group tallied just 12 catches.
