Coach Talk

Mananas
The key to success in football is finding the mismatches. Fueled by stellar performances by Todd Gurley II and Melvin Gordon III, our team took that to heart this past week. We royally dominated Redzone 2 Da Endzone at the running back position (28.5 points to 10.7). Gurley II had 115 total yards and a TD, while Gordon III chipped in with 110 yards.
Redzone 2 Da Endzone
"Not seeing many chances" can't be a reasonable excuse this week for Redzone 2 Da Endzone. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 27 times in Week 13. With only 16 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
