GREEN LEGION lose to Adi's Team, 454.49-404.80

There's no easy way to say it, GREEN LEGION underdelivered, at least based on projections, as Adi's Team emerged victorious with a 454.49-404.80 win. GREEN LEGION nabbed a 5.00-point lead on Thursday, but Adi's Team held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Chris Godwin, who caught 7 passes for 184 yards and 2 touchdowns for 84.8 points, and Ezekiel Elliott, who racked up 126 yards from scrimmage (60.33 points). Christian McCaffrey (92.47 points) and Baker Mayfield (51.91) were the leaders for GREEN LEGION in the loss. This marks the first time this season Adi's Team have taken down GREEN LEGION, after falling 505.1-408.34 in their last matchup. Adi's Team (7-5) will look to keep it rolling against Tic - Boo, while GREEN LEGION (9-3) take on KayCee Chiefs in an effort to get some positive momentum.

Coach Talk

Adi's Team
Hey, this sport is all about spotting the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by nearly tripling GREEN LEGION at the wide receiver position (133.6 points to 48.4).
GREEN LEGION
Derek Carr tossed one interception and literally zero touchdowns? It may be that thankful time of year, but we're having a lot of trouble being grateful for that sort of performance.
