Gronkered brush off predictions, knock off Hooch McCoy's Boyz in 138-115 rout

Gronkered rose to the occasion, rolling to a 138-115 win over Hooch McCoy's Boyz, who fell short of projections. This matchup was decided before it really even started, as Gronkered grabbed a 32-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind standout performances from Jameis Winston and George Kittle. Winston passed for 456 yards and 4 touchdowns for 49 points, while Kittle caught 6 passes for 67 yards and a touchdown (16 points). Lamar Jackson (145 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 40 Rush Yds) and Zach Ertz (9 Rec, 91 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs) did their part for Hooch McCoy's Boyz in defeat. This marks the first time this season Gronkered have knocked off Hooch McCoy's Boyz, after falling 112-85 in their last matchup. Gronkered will look to not lose that winning feeling in the semifinal round next week, while Hooch McCoy's Boyz attempt to rebound and finish the season with a win in the 5th Place game.

Coach Talk

Gronkered
Bravo, Gronkered. Fielding a lineup that won by a whopping 23 points this past week.
Hooch McCoy's Boyz
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR and two TE) collectively got a whopping 40 targets in Week 14. With just 23 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
