g-men hand TeamBrickLesnar fourth consecutive loss in 195.18-85.20 rout

g-men rolled to a 195.18-85.20 win to hand TeamBrickLesnar their fourth straight loss. It didn't take long to figure out who would lead the way in this matchup, as g-men leapt out to a 58.12-point lead on Thursday behind impressive showings from Deshaun Watson and Jamie Collins Sr.. Watson passed for 318 yards and 4 touchdowns and ran for 24 yards for 50.12 points, while Collins Sr. made 5 tackles (4.5 points). DK Metcalf (23.7 points) and Matt Ryan (21.9) led the charge for TeamBrickLesnar in defeat. This marks the second time this season g-men have beaten TeamBrickLesnar, after winning 176-71.72 in their last matchup. g-men (8-4) will look to earn another W against Thats Weird, while TeamBrickLesnar (5-7) try to get back on track against BeastMode Training.

Coach Talk

g-men
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, g-men. Rolling out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Jonnu Smith, David Johnson, and DJ Chark Jr.), while still earning the win... that's playing with fire. Try those shenanigans next week against Thats Weird and see what happens.
TeamBrickLesnar
"Not seeing many looks" isn't a viable excuse this week for TeamBrickLesnar. Our six pass-catchers (five WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 45 targets in Week 12. With just 27 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
