Pizzmaster97 outperform expectations, defeat NJ Kets, 86-69

Pizzmaster97 stepped up and exceeded their projected point total, securing an 86-69 win over NJ Kets. Pizzmaster97 jumped out to a 30-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind 38 points from Derrick Henry (215 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs) and Mike Davis (51 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 42 Rec Yds) and never looked back. Stefon Diggs (10 Rec, 130 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Deshaun Watson (219 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 38 Rush Yds) did everything they could for NJ Kets in the loss. This marks the first time this season Pizzmaster97 have taken down NJ Kets, after falling 68-21 in their last matchup. Pizzmaster97 will look to not lose that winning feeling in the semifinals next week, while NJ Kets attempt to bounce back and finish the season with a win.

Coach Talk

Pizzmaster97
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. Thanks to a sound showing from Russell Wilson, we doubled up NJ Kets at the quarterback position this past week (26 points to 11). Wilson went 21-for-27 for 206 yards, four TDs, and an INT in a 40-3 triumph over the Jets.
NJ Kets
Take my word for it, NJ Kets... Since I'm a coach who's lived life on the hot seat: if this whole "fantasy football GM" thing doesn't work out, you can always fall back on that scrappy Graduate Assistant job available at the community college down the road!
