the end lose to Steidle66 in 168.95-121.90 rout

There's no sugarcoating it, the end underperformed, at least compared to projections, as Steidle66 rolled to a 168.95-121.90 victory. This matchup was over before it really even started, as Steidle66 earned a 42.55-point lead on Thursday behind a combined 35.55 points from Patrick Mahomes (211 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs) and Harrison Butker (2-2 FG, 29 long, 4-4 XP). Calvin Ridley (9 Rec, 130 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs) and Dak Prescott (266 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 30 Rush Yds) carried the flag for the end in the loss. Steidle66 (1-0) will look to build on their success against Tommysterrors, while the end (0-1) take on DirtBags in an effort to get some positive momentum.

Coach Talk

Steidle66
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Thanks to stellar performances by Josh Jacobs and Dalvin Cook, our squad took that to heart this past week. We quadrupled the end at the running back spot (57.7 points to 14.1). Jacobs had 139 total yards and three TDs, while Cook logged 48 yards and two scores.
the end
Ugh, talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting RBs for the end collectively recorded just four targets this past week. Instruct those offensive coordinators to draw up a screen play or two in Week 2!
