Unable to overcome starter's goose egg, 2bitchesNme๐Ÿ˜Ž fall to Lee ๐Ÿ† ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ† in 134.62-108.20 rout

Hindered by a goose egg from Miles Sanders, 2bitchesNme๐Ÿ˜Ž were unable to overcome Lee ๐Ÿ† ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ†, which rolled to a 134.62-108.20 win. Lee ๐Ÿ† ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ† grabbed an early 11.82-point lead on Thursday. 2bitchesNme๐Ÿ˜Ž came back to take the lead during the late slate on Sunday, powered by Alvin Kamara (21.2 points) and the San Francisco 49ers defense (9). Unphased, Lee ๐Ÿ† ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ† pulled it together later that night, as Ezekiel Elliott (26.2 points) and Cooper Kupp (6) put them back on top once and for all. Lee ๐Ÿ† ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ† (1-0) will look to keep it rolling against Illmatic, while 2bitchesNme๐Ÿ˜Ž (0-1) attempt to right the ship against Ronnie's Team.

Coach Talk

Lee ๐Ÿ† ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ†
Assembling a lineup that registered 134.62 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. Let's keep this momentum going as we head into our Week 2 matchup.
2bitchesNme๐Ÿ˜Ž
2bitchesNme๐Ÿ˜Ž may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 1. With only 14 total catches, this group may have some chemistry issues.
