GloriouslyVictorious fall short of expectations, lose to No More Diamonds in 111.22-84.16 rout

There's no sugarcoating it, GloriouslyVictorious underperformed, at least according to projections, as No More Diamonds cruised to a 111.22-84.16 win. GloriouslyVictorious got out to a 14.40-point lead on Thursday, but it was all No More Diamonds after that. They were led by Patrick Mahomes, who passed for 443 yards and 4 touchdowns for 30.62 points, and Calvin Ridley, who caught 8 passes for 105 yards and a touchdown (20.5 points). Tyler Boyd (10 Rec, 122 Rec Yds) and Aaron Rodgers (209 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) did everything they could for GloriouslyVictorious in the loss. No More Diamonds (2-0) will look to keep it rolling against Rando Rick, while GloriouslyVictorious (0-2) will meet Air Raid in an effort to right the ship.
