Hard Targets find way to knock off AMMODOG 120.00-104.55 despite falling short of projections

Both teams fell short of their projected point totals, but Hard Targets did enough to beat AMMODOG. Predicted to win 141.39-140.25, Hard Targets secured a 120.00-104.55 win over AMMODOG. AMMODOG took a 22.5-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind impressive showings from Ryan Tannehill (23.65 points) and Cooper Kupp (22). But Hard Targets held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Tyreek Hill, who caught 4 passes for 98 yards and 2 touchdowns for 25.8 points, and Travis Fulgham, who caught 6 passes for 78 yards and a touchdown (19.8 points). Hard Targets (3-5) will look to keep it rolling against Norman Nobodies, while AMMODOG (5-3) attempt to right the ship against The Dogs of War.
