Groffy outperform predictions, defeat SS 70'S in 121.4-99.4 rout

Groffy rose to the occasion and beat their projected point total, cruising to a 121.4-99.4 win over SS 70'S, who fell short of projections. SS 70'S pulled out to an 8.2-point lead early Sunday afternoon, but it was all Groffy after that. They were led by Jameis Winston (456 Pass Yds, 4 Pass TDs) and Julian Edelman (8 Rec, 95 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD). Aaron Jones (134 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 58 Rec Yds) and Robert Woods (29 Rush Yds, 98 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) did their part for SS 70'S in the loss. This marks the first time this season Groffy have gotten the best of SS 70'S, after falling 98.3-89.5 in their last matchup. Groffy will look to keep winning in the semifinals next week, while SS 70'S attempt to rebound and lock up 5th Place.

Coach Talk

Groffy
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to an awesome performance by Jameis Winston, we doubled up SS 70'S at the quarterback position this past week (35.3 points to 15.1). Winston went 33-for-45 for 456 yards, four TDs, and three INTs in a 38-35 victory over the Colts.
SS 70'S
Fortunately, SS 70'S, this week's problem is fairly easy to diagnose. Choosing to start Alshon Jeffery in a tough fantasy matchup... let's just put this in the rear-view mirror and assume something like this won't be happening again.
