Prolific find way to beat Dolphin Mania in 78-75 struggle despite falling short of expectations

Both teams failed to rise to the occasion, coming up short of their projected point totals, but Prolific did enough to get the best of Dolphin Mania. Predicted to prevail by a score of 103-85, Prolific squeaked by for a 78-75 win over Dolphin Mania. Prolific led 77-75 heading into Monday night with one player left to play. They were fortunate to have the lead already, as Odell Beckham Jr. (2 Rec, 18 Rec Yds) didn't do much to pad their point total. Mac Jones (198 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs) and the Miami Dolphins defense (10 Pts Allowed, 304 Yds Allowed, 2 Turnovers) were the top performers for Dolphin Mania in the loss. Prolific (5-5) will look to add to their success against Forward Propulsion, while Dolphin Mania (3-7) try to right the ship against Chapel Bulls.
