Spokane Sith fall to The Blue Wave 🌊 in 103.02-64.08 rout

There's no easy way to put it, Spokane Sith dropped the ball, at least compared to projections, as The Blue Wave 🌊 rolled to a 103.02-64.08 win. It didn't take long to figure out who would be the frontrunner in this matchup, as The Blue Wave 🌊 earned a 65.52-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind 58.32 points from the Baltimore Ravens defense (13 Pts Allowed, 307 Yds Allowed, 3 Turnovers) and Jameis Winston (358 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 40 Rush Yds). Russell Wilson (18.58 points) and Le'Veon Bell (12.8) did their part for Spokane Sith in defeat. The Blue Wave 🌊 (5-5) will look to sustain their winning ways against Need Moore Touchdown, while Spokane Sith (2-8) will meet Blue Skywalker in an effort to get back on track.

Coach Talk

The Blue Wave 🌊
Listen The Blue Wave 🌊, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped recently, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 110.45 points through Week 9, our crew has certainly proven that it's even better than the 103.02 we needed for this past week's win!
Spokane Sith
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 28 targets in Week 10. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group pulled down only 17 catches.
