Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Fueled by some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team certainly made that happen this week. Our three starting backs tallied 149 more total yards than the RBs on Lambeau Leapers (285 yards from scrimmage to 136), and we wound up thoroughly dominating them at the position (83.4 points to 31.9).
