Wildebeasts come up short of predictions, lose to Pulsechamber in 100.14-47.08 romp

Wildebeasts failed to rise to the occasion, as Pulsechamber rolled to a 100.14-47.08 victory. Wildebeasts grabbed a 3.90-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Pulsechamber after that. They were led by Jalen Hurts, who passed for 296 yards , ran for 38 yards and scored 3 touchdowns for 31.64 points, and Nick Chubb, who ran for 91 yards and a touchdown (19.3 points). Dak Prescott (217 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD) and Mike Williams (3 Rec, 49 Rec Yds) carried the flag for Wildebeasts in the loss. This marks the third time this season Pulsechamber have gotten the best of Wildebeasts, after winning 74.6-61.54 in their last matchup. Pulsechamber will look to clinch the league title next week, while Wildebeasts seek to bounce back and finish the season with a win in the 3rd Place game.

Coach Talk

Pulsechamber
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. We not only doubled up Wildebeasts at WR (24.5 points to 12.2), we also almost tripled them at QB (31.64 points to 10.58).
Wildebeasts
Unless Wildebeasts wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" can't be an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 23 targets in Week 15. With only seven total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
