Kingslayers come up short of projections, succumb to SuperbPremonitions in 135.72-92.58 rout

There's no way around it, Kingslayers underperformed, at least compared to projections, as SuperbPremonitions cruised to a 135.72-92.58 win. Kingslayers jumped out to a 21.78-point lead on Thursday behind a combined 21.78 points from Philip Rivers (207 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) and Mike Williams (2 Rec, 55 Rec Yds). But it was all SuperbPremonitions after that. They were led by Derrick Henry (188 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs) and the Los Angeles Rams defense (17 Pts Allowed, 273 Yds Allowed, 2 Turnovers). SuperbPremonitions improve to 6-4 on the season, while Kingslayers fall to 5-5.
