Coach Talk

The Trubisky Fanboys
The key to success in football is finding the mismatches. With stout performances by Alvin Kamara and T.J. Yeldon, our crew made that a point of emphasis this past week. We royally dominated Harper's Team at running back (56.1 points to 22.3). Kamara had 181 total yards and three TDs, while Yeldon logged 100 yards and two scores.
Harper's Team
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 27 targets in Week 4. With just 16 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
