Latarrance's Team come up short of projections, succumb to Fournettecation, 241.6-191.9

There's no way around it, Latarrance's Team dropped the ball, at least according to projections, as Fournettecation emerged victorious with a 241.6-191.9 victory. Latarrance's Team leapt out to a 45.3-point lead on Thursday behind a stellar performance from Davante Adams (10 Rec, 173 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD). But Fournettecation held the lead the rest of the way, powered by DK Metcalf, who caught 7 passes for 108 yards and a touchdown for 32.8 points, and Russell Wilson, who passed for 390 yards and 2 touchdowns (30.6 points). Fournettecation (5-2) will look to keep it rolling against Devin's Team, while Latarrance's Team (5-2) will attempt to generate some positive momentum against Nate's Nice Team.

Coach Talk

Fournettecation
Hey, it's good to be confident, Fournettecation. It takes guts to deploy a starter with zero points (Justin Jackson), while still getting the win. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Devin's Team and see what happens.
Latarrance's Team
Posting just three targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for Latarrance's Team clearly should look into why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
