King Kong Vong fall short of predictions, succumb to TOKiWOLF in 130.55-104.38 runaway

There's no easy way to put it, King Kong Vong underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as TOKiWOLF cruised to a 130.55-104.38 victory. King Kong Vong got out to a 19.16-point lead on Thursday, but it was all TOKiWOLF after that. They were led by Mark Andrews (25.93 points) and Cordarrelle Patterson (22.9). Derek Carr (25.85 points) and Patrick Mahomes (21.7) did their part for King Kong Vong in the loss. TOKiWOLF (2-1) will look to maintain their momentum against Scottie B. Pippen, while King Kong Vong (2-1) will try to right the ship against Finding DEEBO.

Coach Talk

TOKiWOLF
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. With good production from our ball-carriers, our team definitely made that a point of emphasis this past week. We doubled King Kong Vong up at running back (34.6 points to 15.53). With 153 total yards and a TD, Cordarrelle Patterson did most of the damage, while Austin Ekeler chipped in with 53 yards.
King Kong Vong
Recording just three targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for King Kong Vong should remind their quarterbacks to dump it off more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
