Coach Talk

Mammoths
Spotting mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Case in point: we made that a point of emphasis by tripling yard crew at running back this past week (26 points to 8.64).
yard crew
Unless yard crew wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 26 targets in Week 16. With just 14 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
