Coach Talk

JJ What
A big key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to stellar performances by Melvin Gordon III and LeSean McCoy, our crew took that to heart this past week. We thoroughly outscored Beast Load at running back (42.4 points to 15.7). Gordon III had 150 total yards and three TDs, while McCoy chipped in with 94 yards.
Beast Load
Missing a field goal isn't typically cause for concern. But come on now, talk about impeccable timing: Jake Elliott goes 2-for-3 on FGs instead of 3-for-3, and Beast Load loses the matchup by 1.98 points. We'll let you do the math on that one.
