Caribbean Bombers fall to Cedric's TPSer's in 143-123 rout

Caribbean Bombers were unable to rise to the occasion, coming up short of projections, as Cedric's TPSer's cruised to a 143-123 victory. Caribbean Bombers got out to a 3-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Cedric's TPSer's after that. They were led by Kirk Cousins (340 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) and George Kittle (9 Rec, 181 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs). Tee Higgins (28 points) and Leonard Fournette (21) led the way for Caribbean Bombers in defeat. This marks the third time this season Cedric's TPSer's have taken down Caribbean Bombers, after winning 124-101 in their last matchup. Cedric's TPSer's (9-4) will look to add to their success against Sledgehammers, while Caribbean Bombers (4-9) will try to get back on track against Warriors of Angels.

Coach Talk

Cedric's TPSer's
Identifying mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to a solid showing from Kirk Cousins, we tripled Caribbean Bombers at the quarterback position this past week (46 points to 14). Cousins went 30-for-40 for 340 yards and two TDs in a 29-27 loss to the Lions.
Caribbean Bombers
"Not seeing many looks" really isn't an excuse this week for Caribbean Bombers. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 36 times in Week 13. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they recorded only 22 catches.
