Despite top scorer Jackson, LightsCameraJACKSON fall to Andrew's Team in 118.16-93.28 rout

Lamar Jackson accumulated 37.08 points for LightsCameraJACKSON, the best total in the matchup and second-best in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to topple Andrew's Team, who cruised to a 118.16-93.28 win. LightsCameraJACKSON leapt out to a 37.08-point lead on Thursday behind Lamar Jackson, who passed for 212 yards and 5 touchdowns and ran for 86 yards. But it was all Andrew's Team after that. They were led by Ryan Tannehill (279 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 10 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Travis Kelce (11 Rec, 142 Rec Yds). This marks the first time this season Andrew's Team have gotten the best of LightsCameraJACKSON, after falling 122.42-121.68 in their last matchup. Andrew's Team will look to clinch the championship next week, while LightsCameraJACKSON attempt to bounce back and finish the season with a win in the 3rd Place game.

Coach Talk

Andrew's Team
Kudos on deploying a lineup that registered more than 118 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right.
LightsCameraJACKSON
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 14 times in Week 15. Chemistry appears to be the primary issue, as that group reeled in just six catches.
