Coach Talk

Skol Squad
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to some stellar yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a big disparity this week. Our three starting backs logged 182 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs on Turn Down for Watt (386 total yards to 204), and we wound up utterly dominating them at the position, 83 points to 32.
Turn Down for Watt
Yo, Turn Down for Watt, did your pass-catchers drop too many balls in practice or something? With only 12 total targets this past week, our starting receiver crew (two WR, one TE) obviously got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
