Coach Talk

Bella’s Boxers
Hey, football is all about spotting the mismatches, right? With great performances by Ezekiel Elliott and Phillip Lindsay, our squad took that to heart this past week. We royally dominated Nancy's Nana at the running back position (43.9 points to 16). Elliott had 240 total yards and a TD, while Lindsay logged 79 yards.
Nancy's Nana
Ugh, talk about old-school ground n' pound: The starting RBs for Nancy's Nana collectively registered just two receptions on four measly targets this past week. Instruct those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 5!
