Coach Talk

Grounds Game Keeper
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. Thanks to a sound outing by Jameis Winston, we thoroughly outscored DITKA at the quarterback position this past week (22.76 points to 8.28). Winston went 20-for-30 for 249 yards and two TDs in a 24-17 victory over the Panthers.
DITKA
Posting one catch on only two measly targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for DITKA should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
