24 Eh! fall to Naked Canadians in 85.98-60.54 rout

There's no way around it, 24 Eh! didn't do their job, at least compared to projections, as Naked Canadians cruised to a 85.98-60.54 victory. 24 Eh! took a 18.60-point lead on Thursday behind standout performances from Justin Jackson (14.5 points) and Tyreek Hill (4.1). But Naked Canadians held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Chris Carson (119 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 29 Rec Yds) and Matt Ryan (231 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 18 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD). This marks the second time this season Naked Canadians have gotten the best of 24 Eh!, after winning 90.7-75.28 in their last matchup. Naked Canadians will look to not lose that winning feeling in the Championship next week, while 24 Eh! attempt to bounce back and lock up 3rd Place.

Coach Talk

Naked Canadians
Way to shrug off that two-game losing streak, Naked Canadians! Each fantasy GM will surely be hit with adversity somewhere along the way... keep showing resilience like this and take things one week at a time.
24 Eh!
"Not seeing enough looks" won't cut it as an excuse this week for 24 Eh!. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 13 targets in Week 15. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they reeled in only six catches.
