Smooth Moves by Killer Beas

• Even if you cried trying to win, you still won. And the Toyota Hall of Fame is proud of Killer Beas either way.
• The 13.00 points scored by Matt Bryant was the highest K score of the week and is the fifth-highest K score in the league this season.
• The 32.35 points scored by Dak Prescott ranked fifth in the league in scoring this week and third for any player on Killer Beas this season.
• Took the New York Jets Defense out of the starting lineup, which scored 1.00 point on the bench, fewer than the starting DEF.
• Look, there in the sky. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's just Antonio Brown posterizing opponents. He had the 10th-highest score of any WR in the league this week with 21.70 points.

Toyota Roster Tune-up

• It's okay to regret not taking a sick day to study the Toyota Hall of Fame's articles. But it's not okay to do it again.
• Whoever gave you this advice, you might want to lose their number. Traded for and started Brandin Cooks, who then scored below his 16.02-point projection with 11.60 points.
• At the QB position, Raging BULLS got outscored 32.35 - 13.55 by Killer Beas.
• Raging BULLS could have used more points from the TE position, where Killer Beas beat them 16.20 - 2.50.
• Dwayne Allen scored the fewest points on the team and scored below his projection for the fifth time this season with 2.50 points against a projected 7.93.

What If

• If Killer Beas played Raging BULLS every week, they'd be 5-4 this season.
• Killer Beas would have beaten nine other teams besides Raging BULLS this week.
• Had they played each other last week, Killer Beas would have defeated Raging BULLS 127.11 - 112.00.
• If they played the same schedule as Raging BULLS, Killer Beas would be 5-3.
• If Killer Beas had played every team in the league each week, they would be 78-57.
• Besides Killer Beas, Raging BULLS would have been defeated by seven other teams this week.
• Raging BULLS would be 5-3 if they played the same schedule as Killer Beas.
• Raging BULLS would be 75-60 if they played every team every week.

Game Notes

• Raging BULLS scored 107.85 points against a projected 106.04 and beat their scoring projection for the sixth time this season, including the last three weeks in a row.
• Killer Beas was able to cover the 9.07-point spread in the win.
• Raging BULLS had their four-game win streak snapped in the loss.
• We don't condone cheating, but this group of wide receivers might want to spray Stickum on their gloves. The 26.10 total points by the WRs on Killer Beas was their lowest WR output this season.
• This is the biggest margin of defeat of the season for Raging BULLS.
• The win saw Killer Beas top their projected points, giving them a 4-0 record when beating their projection. Raging BULLS also overachieved and falls to 4-2 when doing so.
• Melvin Gordon played well in the loss, ranking third in the league in scoring and beating his scoring projection by a matchup-leading 156.8%.
• If I had a performance like that, I'd probably go see the local hypnotist. Despite being on the winning team, Tavon Austin scored a season-low 4.40 points, just 30.7% of a projected 14.34, his lowest percentage of the season.
