Offensively challenged deepball knock off The Cereal Killers, 86-76

Ranking ninth in the league in points scored for the week, deepball were fortunate to earn a win against a foe that performed even worse, securing an 86-76 win over The Cereal Killers. The Cereal Killers earned a 39-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind stellar performances from Matt Prater, who made all 3 of his FG attempts for 16 points, and Deshaun Watson, who passed for 163 yards and a touchdown and ran for 36 yards (13 points). But deepball held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Alvin Kamara (15 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 83 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Jared Goff (302 Pass Yds). deepball (6-4) will look to add to their success against Tony b's storm, while The Cereal Killers (4-6) attempt to get some positive momentum against Gronkie Kong🦧.

Coach Talk

deepball
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, deepball! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve. Our wide receivers were thoroughly overmatched this past week. Held back by Nelson Agholor (eight yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Emmanuel Sanders (five yards, no TDs), our three WRs combined for just 6 points in Week 10. The starting wideouts for The Cereal Killers showed us how it's supposed to be done by putting up a score of 16. Let's persuade the QB to get some more targets in Week 11!
The Cereal Killers
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 21 times in Week 10. With just nine total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
