Coach Talk

K-Log
A big key to success in football is spotting the mismatches. Fueled by stout performances by Melvin Gordon III and Saquon Barkley, our team certainly made that a point of emphasis this past week. We tripled Tony's Rednecks up at the running back spot (67.4 points to 19.6). Gordon III had 150 total yards and three TDs, while Barkley logged 229 yards.
Tony's Rednecks
Ugh, talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for Tony's Rednecks combined to receive zero targets in the passing game this past week. Tell those quarterbacks to check down a little more often in Week 7!
