Coach Talk

David's Team
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches, right? Thanks to stout performances by Phillip Lindsay and Dion Lewis, our squad certainly took that to heart this past week. We tripled Slap The Chef up at running back (26.5 points to 8.4). Lindsay had 118 total yards and a TD, while Lewis chipped in with 87 yards.
Slap The Chef
So, Slap The Chef, did your wideouts talk bad about their quarterbacks or something? Accumulating only five total targets this past week, our three wide receivers clearly need to get in their respective QBs' ears this week in practice.
