Raiders Hell Hounds come up short of expectations, succumb to Anteater in 93.97-70.22 rout

There's no way around it, Raiders Hell Hounds dropped the ball, at least based on projections, as Anteater rolled to a 93.97-70.22 victory. Raiders Hell Hounds earned a 1.00-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Anteater after that. They were led by Robert Woods (12 Rec, 130 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Carson Wentz (235 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 10 Rush Yds). Jared Goff (376 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs) and Michael Thomas (9 Rec, 104 Rec Yds) carried the flag for Raiders Hell Hounds in the loss. Anteater (5-6) will look to sustain their momentum against Ga(y)iders, while Raiders Hell Hounds (5-6) face off against FtheRefs in an effort to right the ship.

Coach Talk

Anteater
Listen, Anteater, we do admire the confidence. Rolling out not one, but TWO players with zero points (Patrick Onwuasor and Hayden Hurst), while still getting the W... that's playing with fire! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Raiders Hell Hounds
Ugh, talk about old-school ground n' pound: The starting RBs for Raiders Hell Hounds collectively recorded only four targets this past week. Get those quarterbacks to check down a little more often in Week 12!
