Eagles fall short of projections, succumb to Crush in 114.20-73.46 runaway

There's no sugarcoating it, Eagles underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as Crush rolled to a 114.20-73.46 win. Eagles grabbed a 0.80-point lead on Thursday, but it was all Crush after that. They were led by Joe Burrow (32.5 points) and Joe Mixon (14.8). Josh Allen (26.36 points) and Greg Zuerlein (9) did everything they could for Eagles in the loss. Crush (4-2) will look to earn another W against Red & Gold, while Eagles (4-2) try to get back on track against GC Lions.
