Beloglavi were unable to rise to the occasion, falling short of their projected point total, as Fools and Horses cruised to a 108-83 victory.

Aaron Rodgers (268 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 11 Rush Yds) and the Indianapolis Colts defense (17 Pts Allowed, 365 Yds Allowed, 2 Turnovers) did everything they could for Beloglavi in the loss.

Coach Talk

Fools and Horses
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Fools and Horses! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then we have found an area to improve: our quarterback was utterly outplayed by the opposition. Aaron Rodgers went 23-of-31 for 268 yards and three touchdowns for Beloglavi, and all Ben Roethlisberger could muster was a 16-for-25 day for 148 passing yards.
Beloglavi
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 21 times in Week 15. With just 13 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
