NYG come up short of predictions, succumb to Beckley Bombers in 115.56-81.22 rout

NYG underperformed expectations, as Beckley Bombers cruised to a 115.56-81.22 victory. NYG got out to a 14.40-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Beckley Bombers after that. They were led by Patrick Mahomes (337 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 18 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Dalvin Cook (61 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 43 Rec Yds). Nick Chubb (83 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 18 Rec Yds) and the Pittsburgh Steelers defense (16 Pts Allowed, 371 Yds Allowed, 1 Turnovers) led the way for NYG in the loss. Beckley Bombers (1-0) will look to maintain their winning ways against HowAboutCowboys, while NYG (0-1) face off against Crazy Dogs in an effort to earn their first W.
