CircleTheWagons come back to beat Bill Braski in 96.64-95.24 battle

There's no sugarcoating it, CircleTheWagons dropped the ball, at least according to projections. Still, they came from behind for a 96.64-95.24 win over Bill Braski, who actually exceeded projections. Despite trailing 95.24-61.14 heading into Sunday night, CircleTheWagons charged back behind Chris Carson (18.3 points) and DK Metcalf (17.2). Joe Burrow (24.54 points) and Tyler Boyd (16.7) carried the flag for Bill Braski in defeat. CircleTheWagons (1-1) will look to sustain their winning ways against Cant Touch This, while Bill Braski (0-2) will attempt to get their first W against Gridiron Gladiators.

Coach Talk

CircleTheWagons
Getting the win is most important, CircleTheWagons, but we've also identified one spot where we can get better as a team: our quarterback was utterly outmatched by the opposition. Joe Burrow went 37-of-61 for 316 yards and three touchdowns for Bill Braski, and all Daniel Jones could manage was a 25-for-40 day for 241 passing yards and an ugly interception. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 3!
Bill Braski
Ugh, talk about under-utilized. The starting RBs for Bill Braski did not get a single target via the passing game this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up a screen play or two in Week 3!
