Coach Talk

Aither's Team
Hey, this sport is all about creating mismatches, right? Thanks to an awesome showing by Jared Goff, we doubled up TJKP at the quarterback position this past week (24.96 points to 10.46). Goff went 32-for-43 for 424 yards and two TDs in a 34-7 win over the Cardinals.
TJKP
Logging just a pair of targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for TJKP clearly should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to start checking down more often.
