Coach Talk

My New Cheesecloth
Hey, the key to football is finding the mismatches. With some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team really made that happen this week. Our three starting backs tallied 166 more total yards than the RBs on Shea Faced (258 yards from scrimmage to 92), as we ultimately royally dominated them at the position, 49.8 points to 14.2.
Shea Faced
Well, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our five pass-catchers (three WR, two TE) were targeted a respectable 25 times in Week 13. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group managed only 13 catches.
