Warm Bodies lose to Vultures, 152.15-130.70
There's no easy way to say it, Warm Bodies underperformed, at least according to projections, as Vultures secured a 152.15-130.70 win. Warm Bodies earned a 26.10-point lead on Thursday, but Vultures held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by the New England Patriots defense, who didn't allow any points, surrendered 184 yards, and intercepted 4 passes for 37 points, and Saquon Barkley, who racked up 135 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown (22.5 points). Chris Godwin (8 Rec, 121 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Travis Kelce (7 Rec, 107 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) were the top scorers for Warm Bodies in the loss. Vultures (2-0) will look to keep it rolling against Rebel Alliance, while Warm Bodies (0-2) will meet Cocks in an effort to right the ship.
In a 43-0 win over the Dolphins, the Patriots defense scored 37 points to more-than-triple their 10.03-point projection. They didn't allow any points, surrendered 184 yards, and intercepted 4 passes to beat their projection by the highest percentage of any player on Vultures this week. Next week, the Patriots will square off against the Jets.

Vultures
Listen, Vultures, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes real moxie to deploy a player with zero points (DeSean Jackson), while still getting the win. We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be finished.
Warm Bodies
Don't get too discouraged, Warm Bodies! Listen, I've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes free points can just magically appear out of the blue. And then sometimes, like in your case this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, alright; hoping for an additional 22 points might be a bit overzealous.
