Coach Talk

Comeback Kid
Hey, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. With great performances by Christian McCaffrey and Josh Jacobs, our squad made that a point of emphasis this past week. We doubled VACHout up at running back (33.42 points to 15.3). McCaffrey had 102 yards from scrimmage while Jacobs chipped in with 104 yards.
VACHout
Recording only three targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for VACHout obviously should investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the silent treatment.
