CircleTheWagons knock off Debo in 137.88-98.62 rout

CircleTheWagons exceeded expectations, rolling to a 137.88-98.62 victory over Debo, who fell short of projections. Debo earned a 14.6-point lead early Sunday afternoon, but it was all CircleTheWagons after that. They were led by Mike Davis (89 Rush Yds, 60 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and DK Metcalf (6 Rec, 93 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs). Todd Gurley II (121 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 29 Rec Yds) and Josh Allen (263 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 18 Rush Yds) led the way for Debo in defeat. CircleTheWagons (3-2) will look to sustain their winning ways against Bad News Bears, while Debo (2-3) match up against Gridiron Gladiators in an effort to generate some positive momentum.
