Coach Talk

Give Em HELLes
Creating mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Thanks to a thrilling performance from Jimmy Garoppolo, we doubled up Mike's Team at the quarterback position this past week (46.9 points to 20). Garoppolo went 34-for-45 for 424 yards, four TDs, and two INTs in a 36-26 win over the Cardinals.
Mike's Team
Logging only four targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Mike's Team should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
