Switchmillers come up short of projections, succumb to Iso Rockets in 125-79 rout

Switchmillers failed to rise to the occasion, falling short of their projected point total, as Iso Rockets rolled to a 125-79 win. Switchmillers got out to a 3-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Iso Rockets after that. They were led by Russell Wilson, who passed for 206 yards and 4 touchdowns for 28 points, and Miles Sanders, who racked up 136 yards from scrimmage and ran for 2 touchdowns (25 points). Ben Roethlisberger (187 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) and Dalvin Cook (102 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) carried the flag for Switchmillers in defeat. This marks the second time this season Iso Rockets have gotten the best of Switchmillers, after winning 112-95 in their last matchup. Iso Rockets will look to keep winning in the semifinals next week, while Switchmillers attempt to rebound and lock up a top-6 finish.

Coach Talk

Iso Rockets
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Iso Rockets. Our wide receivers were thoroughly outplayed this past week. Buoyed by Marvin Jones Jr. (48 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and CeeDee Lamb (46 yards, no TDs), our three WRs combined for just 9 points in Week 14. The starting wideouts for Switchmillers doubled us up with a score of 18.
Switchmillers
Hey, Switchmillers, did your receiving crew talk bad about their quarterbacks or something? Seeing only 16 targets combined this past week, our four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
