Mutinous Apes come up short of projections, succumb to Hooligans in 159.45-102.60 runaway

There's no sugarcoating it, Mutinous Apes underdelivered, at least based on projections, as Hooligans cruised to a 159.45-102.60 victory. Mutinous Apes earned a 12.80-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Hooligans after that. They were led by Justin Herbert (32.05 points) and D'Andre Swift (26.5). Gabe Davis (4 Rec, 88 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Tyreek Hill (8 Rec, 94 Rec Yds) were the leading scorers for Mutinous Apes in defeat. Hooligans (1-0) will look to keep it rolling against Doughboys, while Mutinous Apes (0-1) attempt to get back on track against Warm Bodies.

Coach Talk

Hooligans
Hey, football is all about creating and exploiting the mismatches, right? Fueled by an awesome performance from Justin Herbert, we royally dominated Mutinous Apes at the quarterback position this past week (32.05 points to 12.2). Herbert went 26-for-34 for 279 yards and three TDs in a 24-19 win over the Raiders.
Mutinous Apes
Your starting QB tossed three interceptions and just a single touchdown? I guess we're presented with a fork in the road here: Were the Bills genuinely that stout defending the pass, or was Matthew Stafford just that inaccurate from the pocket? What do you think, Mutinous Apes, do we continue to start him with confidence?
