Coach Talk

FierceForce
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Thanks to stout production out of our ball-carriers, our team took that to heart this past week. We thoroughly outscored Wentzlvania at running back (35 points to 5.4). With 166 total yards and a TD, Derrick Henry did most of the damage, while Josh Jacobs chipped in with 104 yards.
Wentzlvania
Just one field goal on four attempts? Sounds like Adam Vinatieri may have just toe-bashed himself to the waiver wire after that sort of effort.
