AaronsFuckUTour fall short of predictions, lose to La Flama Blanca in 124.18-102.28 rout

There's no easy way to put it, AaronsFuckUTour underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as La Flama Blanca cruised to a 124.18-102.28 victory. The matchup was decided almost as soon as it started, as La Flama Blanca nabbed a 35-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind outstanding performances from Todd Gurley II (23 points) and Tyreek Hill (16.8). Justin Herbert (32.36 points) and Robby Anderson (15.5) were the leading scorers for AaronsFuckUTour in defeat. La Flama Blanca (3-2) will look to maintain their momentum against Funk E Zekiel, while AaronsFuckUTour (3-2) will take on Don Compalino’s Team in an effort to get back in the win column.

Coach Talk

La Flama Blanca
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. Case in point: we really took that to heart by thoroughly outplaying AaronsFuckUTour at running back this past week (39.9 points to 15.1).
AaronsFuckUTour
Unless AaronsFuckUTour wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" won't cut it as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 38 targets in Week 5. With just 21 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
