TX4vida come up short of projections, succumb to Meatmonger in 139.64-69.74 romp

TX4vida were unable to bring their A game, falling short of projections, as Meatmonger rolled to a 139.64-69.74 win. TX4vida earned a 7.80-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Meatmonger after that. They were led by Tua Tagovailoa (469 Pass Yds, 6 Pass TDs) and David Montgomery (122 Rush Yds, 14 Rec Yds). Kirk Cousins (221 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 20 Rush Yds) and the Los Angeles Rams defense (27 Pts Allowed, 261 Yds Allowed, 3 Turnovers) led the charge for TX4vida in defeat. Meatmonger (2-0) will look to build on their success against Michael's Misfits, while TX4vida (1-1) face Sayers Monsters in an effort to get back on track.

Coach Talk

Meatmonger
Spotting mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Our team found one this past week and almost quadrupled TX4vida at the quarterback position (64.94 points to 16.34).
TX4vida
Welp, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (two WR and two TE) collectively received a grand total of 19 targets in Week 2. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group pulled down just 11 catches.
