LuongTD lose to Ravens Nest in 103.80-100.24 nailbiter

There's no way around it, LuongTD dropped the ball, at least compared to projections, as Ravens Nest eked out a 103.80-100.24 victory. LuongTD had a chance to come from behind on Monday night, but it wasn't to be. Ravens Nest led 103.80-98.54 after Sunday's action and held on for the win despite 1.7 points from Allen Lazard on Monday night for LuongTD. Ravens Nest were led by Jaylen Waddle, who caught 3 passes for 114 yards and a touchdown for 20.4 points, and Ezekiel Elliott, who racked up 71 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown (15.1 points). This marks the second time this season Ravens Nest have beaten LuongTD, after winning 142.5-119.8 in their last matchup. Ravens Nest will look to not lose that winning feeling in the Championship next week, while LuongTD seek to bounce back and finish the season with a win in the 3rd Place game.

Coach Talk

Ravens Nest
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Ravens Nest; our starting quarterback was thoroughly overmatched by the opposition. Joe Burrow went 27-of-39 for 200 yards and four touchdowns for LuongTD, and all Tyler Huntley could manage was a 17-for-30 day for 138 passing yards.
LuongTD
With three receptions on only four targets this past week, the starting RBs for LuongTD should remind their QBs to start checking down more often (and dial up a screen play or two).
