Coach Talk

Double Tap Kap
You know, the key to football is spotting and exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by stout production out of the backfield, our crew definitely made that a point of emphasis this past week. We thoroughly outplayed Crown My Ass at running back (55 points to 10). Christian McCaffrey (188 total yards and a TD) did most of the heavy lifting, while Austin Ekeler chipped in with 81 yards.
Crown My Ass
Unless Crown My Ass wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" is not an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 25 times in Week 3. With just 14 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
