Air Raid find way to knock off No More Diamonds in 102.14-97.70 battle despite falling short of predictions

Predicted to win 113.67-109.97, Air Raid squeaked by for a 102.14-97.70 win over No More Diamonds. No More Diamonds had a chance to come from behind on Sunday night, but it wasn't to be. Air Raid led 98.14-92.70 after the afternoon action and held on for the win despite 5 points from Jason Witten on Sunday night for No More Diamonds. Austin Ekeler (60 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 62 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and the Chicago Bears defense (6 Pts Allowed, 222 Yds Allowed, 2 Turnovers) won the week for Air Raid in the victory.
