Coach Talk

Generic Team Eric
Creating mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Thanks to stellar numbers from the backfield, our crew definitely took that to heart this past week. We almost tripled Jason Coonrod's Mom at the running back spot (49.6 points to 18). With 183 total yards and three TDs, Nick Chubb did most of the heavy lifting, while Josh Jacobs chipped in with 108 yards.
Jason Coonrod's Mom
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 25 times in Week 4. With only 14 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
