Debo find way to knock off Josh's Team 95.46-77.16 despite coming up short of projections

Both teams were unable to bring their A game, falling short of their projected point totals, but Debo did enough to get the best of Josh's Team, earning a 95.46-77.16 win. Debo earned a 22.1-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind outstanding showings from Dak Prescott (269 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 69 Rush Yds) and JuJu Smith-Schuster (5 Rec, 84 Rec Yds) and never looked back. Julio Jones (25.1 points) and David Montgomery (13.3) led the charge for Josh's Team in the loss. Debo (2-0) will look to keep it rolling against Mr big puff, while Josh's Team (1-1) attempt to get back on track against Ready Player One.

Coach Talk

Debo
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Thanks to a solid performance by Dak Prescott, we doubled up Josh's Team at the quarterback position this past week (27.66 points to 12.86). Prescott went 26-for-30 for 269 yards, three TDs, and an INT in a 31-21 win over the Redskins.
Josh's Team
Unless Josh's Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 2. With just eight total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
