DreDreDeWinner🤑 outperform predictions, earn win over THE CIRCLE in 206-98 rout

DreDreDeWinner🤑 showed up, rolling to a 206-98 win over THE CIRCLE, who fell short of projections. THE CIRCLE got out to a 2-point lead on Thursday, but it was all DreDreDeWinner🤑 after that. They were led by Jameis Winston (456 Pass Yds, 4 Pass TDs) and Michael Thomas (11 Rec, 134 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD).

Coach Talk

DreDreDeWinner🤑
Identifying mismatches is a huge key to success in football. In addition to doubling up THE CIRCLE at QB (66 points to 30), we also almost tripled them at WR (49 to 17).
THE CIRCLE
It's entirely possible that THE CIRCLE may be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. With only 11 total targets this past week, their three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) apparently spent the majority of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
