Coach Talk

No Limit Bowler
Creating mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Fueled by good production out of our ball-carriers, our squad definitely made that a point of emphasis this past week. We thoroughly outplayed T’s Bags at running back (27.2 points to 10.8). Ezekiel Elliott did most of the damage (147 total yards and a TD), while Devonta Freeman sprinkled on some extra goodness with 25 yards.
T’s Bags
T’s Bags may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and two TE) collectively saw a grand total of 30 targets in Week 7. With only 18 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
