Coach Talk

Rando Rick
Creating mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Fueled by stellar performances by Derrick Henry and Ezekiel Elliott, our crew made that a point of emphasis this past week. We doubled FaceTheFacts up at running back (43.6 points to 20). Henry had 175 total yards and two TDs, while Elliott chipped in with 126 yards.
FaceTheFacts
Unless FaceTheFacts wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many opportunities" can't be a reasonable excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 12. With just 13 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
