Coach Talk

𝘽𝙎𝙃𝙐
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, 𝘽𝙎𝙃𝙐! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then we have found an area to improve. Our starting running backs were thoroughly outplayed this past week. Buoyed by Gus Edwards (67 total yards, no TDs) and Theo Riddick (58 yards, no TDs), our three RBs combined for only 26.3 points in Week 14, while the starting backfield for Jimmy KOed 😞 doubled us up with a score of 61.3. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 15!
Jimmy KOed 😞
Unless Jimmy KOed 😞 wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" is not an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 28 times in Week 14. With just 16 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
