SNAKEBITTEN succumb to Tornado Warning ⚠️ in 118.32-84.90 rout

There's no sugarcoating it, SNAKEBITTEN underdelivered, at least according to projections, as Tornado Warning ⚠️ rolled to a 118.32-84.90 win. SNAKEBITTEN got out to an 11.78-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Tornado Warning ⚠️ after that. They were led by the New England Patriots defense (0 Pts Allowed, 184 Yds Allowed, 4 Turnovers) and Odell Beckham Jr. (6 Rec, 161 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD). Russell Wilson (300 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 22 Rush Yds) and Saquon Barkley (107 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 28 Rec Yds) led the way for SNAKEBITTEN in the loss. Tornado Warning ⚠️ (1-1) will look to keep it rolling against Started from the top, while SNAKEBITTEN (0-2) attempt to get their first victory against Jinxproof.
