Whackers come up short of projections, still manage to defeat AMMODOG in 141.40-87.45 beatdown

Both teams failed to bring their A game, but Whackers did enough to take down AMMODOG. Predicted to win 170.95-159.27, Whackers rolled to a 141.40-87.45 victory over AMMODOG. Whackers nabbed a 24.3-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind stellar efforts from Devin Singletary and CeeDee Lamb. Singletary ran for 86 yards and a touchdown for 16.6 points, while Lamb caught 6 passes for 50 yards (11 points). AMMODOG came back to take the lead late afternoon Sunday, powered by Jimmy Garoppolo (18.15 points) and Aaron Jones (15.45). Not to be deterred, Whackers got it going on Monday night with their back against the wall, as K.J. Osborn (5.9 points) put them back in the lead once and for all. This marks the second time this season Whackers have gotten the best of AMMODOG, after winning 197.9-159.6 in their last matchup. Whackers will look to clinch the league championship next week.

Coach Talk

Whackers
Getting the win is most important, Whackers, but we've also identified one spot where we can get stronger as a team. Our quarterback was utterly outplayed this past week. Our one signal-callers combined for only 5.8 points in Week 15, and the QBs for AMMODOG tripled us up with a score of 18.15.
AMMODOG
Well, AMMODOG, Week 15's problem was fairly easy to identify. Going with Ryan Succop in a tough fantasy matchup... let's try to play with a full deck of cards next time.
