Coach Talk

TheGuiseIsLoose!
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to great performances by Derrick Henry and Devin Singletary, our crew made that a point of emphasis this past week. We doubled Bam! Bam! up at running back (52.36 points to 24.06). Henry had 166 total yards and a TD, while Singletary logged 101 yards.
Bam! Bam!
"Not seeing enough opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for Bam! Bam!. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to receive a whopping 22 targets in Week 13. With just 12 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
