Coach Talk

London Gentlemen
You know, the key to football is spotting and exploiting the mismatches. With solid production out of the backfield, our team definitely took that to heart this past week. We absolutely dominated Well Oiled Machine at running back (33 points to 9). Christian McCaffrey did most of the heavy lifting (237 total yards and two TDs), while David Johnson chipped in with 79 yards.
Well Oiled Machine
Posting just three targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for Well Oiled Machine clearly need to investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the silent treatment.
