Coach Talk

Sacks in the City
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to great performances by Derrick Henry and Leonard Fournette, our squad certainly took that to heart this past week. We tripled 2ndShotgun Formation up at the running back position (37.1 points to 12.2). Henry had 99 total yards and two TDs, while Fournette chipped in with 72 yards.
2ndShotgun Formation
We were just taking it easy so our players could dominate in Week 10, right? The six starting offensive skill players on 2ndShotgun Formation (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to record 271 yards and just one touchdown this past week. Our opposition's skill players showed us how it's supposed to be done by logging 433 yards and four scores.
