Coach Talk

Fantastic Mr. Fox
Creating mismatches is a big key to success in football. Fueled by some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team certainly made that happen this week. Our three backfield starters logged 314 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs of Nancy's Nana (376 total yards to 62), and we wound up quadrupling them at the position, 51.6 points to 12.2.
Nancy's Nana
With a pair of catches on just three targets this past week, the starting RBs for Nancy's Nana obviously should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
