Coach Talk

Jtown Reverse Pandas
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Case in point: we made that a point of emphasis by doubling up Rookie Jr. at running back this past week (36.7 points to 16.76).
Rookie Jr.
Welp, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively received a grand total of 17 targets in Week 10. With only 10 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
