Coach Talk

Hit The Showers Boys
Hey, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by great performances by Ezekiel Elliott and Le'Veon Bell, our crew definitely took that to heart this past week. We utterly dominated Yoko Romo at the running back position (39.3 points to 10.8). With 160 total yards and two TDs, Elliott did most of the heavy lifting, while Bell chipped in with 88 yards.
Yoko Romo
Unless Yoko Romo wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough opportunities" isn't really an excuse this week. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 54 times in Week 15. Those players should spend extra practice time working with their QBs, considering they hauled in just 32 receptions.
