Coach Talk

Mad Juicemen
Earning the win is most important, Mad Juicemen, but we definitely know of one spot where we can improve as a team: our running backs were significantly outmatched this past week. Dalvin Cook (54 total yards, one TD) logged just 17 points in Week 6. Adrian Peterson and Nick Chubb doubled us up with a score of 41.5. Let's put some extra effort into scouting these upcoming defenses!
Baker's Dirty Dozen
Unless Baker's Dirty Dozen wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 21 targets in Week 6. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group notched only 12 catches.
