BAMFS fall short of predictions, still manage to beat I Own You, 110.56-91.40

Both teams were unable to rise to the occasion, falling short of their projected point totals, but BAMFS did enough to knock off I Own You. Predicted to win 133.30-130.93, BAMFS secured a 110.56-91.40 victory over I Own You. I Own You jumped out to a 34.00-point lead on Thursday behind Jonathan Taylor, who racked up 200 yards from scrimmage and ran for 2 touchdowns. But BAMFS held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Travis Kelce (5 Rec, 68 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Melvin Gordon III (80 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 15 Rec Yds). BAMFS (5-4) will look to add to their success against The Graveyard, while I Own You (6-3) will try to get back in the win column against Kyler The Creator.

Coach Talk

BAMFS
Listen BAMFS, the good news is that we took this matchup by over 19 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this, as our scoring average through Week 8 stood at 126.13. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
I Own You
Wait, our quarterback tossed three interceptions and literally zero touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape. Were the Dolphins genuinely that good against the pass, or did Tyrod Taylor appear rattled back there in the pocket? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of I Own You?
