Coach Talk

50ShadesOfMacyGray
Creating mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Fueled by stellar performances by Alex Collins and Duke Johnson Jr., our crew made that a point of emphasis this past week. We almost tripled Deez at the running back spot (28.3 points to 10.1). Collins had 54 total yards and two TDs, while Johnson Jr. chipped in with 109 yards.
Deez
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a hearty 28 targets in Week 6. With only 17 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
