Coach Talk

My New Cheesecloth
Getting the win is most important, My New Cheesecloth, but we've also identified one spot where we should improve as a team; our running backs were significantly outclassed by the opposition. Buoyed by Mark Ingram (36 total yards, no TDs) and Aaron Jones (86 yards, no TDs), our three RBs combined for just 14.2 points in Week 9, while the starting backfield for The Chogram tripled us up with a score of 47.7. Let's work with the O-line to find some more holes in Week 10!
