Coach Talk

Buckmasters
A big key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. With good numbers out of the backfield, our squad definitely took that to heart this past week. We almost tripled Brad's Blasters at the running back position (25 points to 9). With 109 total yards and two TDs, Leonard Fournette did most of the heavy lifting, while James White sprinkled in some extra goodness with 26 yards.
Brad's Blasters
Hey now, talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting backfield for Brad's Blasters collectively recorded only two targets this past week. Tell those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 11!
