Eat it! were unable to rise to the occasion, as Danny Boy rolled to a 121.50-31.06 victory. The matchup was over almost as soon as it started, as Danny Boy jumped out to a 36.90-point lead on Thursday behind a stellar effort from Aaron Rodgers. Mike Evans (4 Rec, 64 Rec Yds) and the Chicago Bears defense (24 Pts Allowed, 228 Yds Allowed) led the charge for Eat it! in defeat.
