Coach Talk

LarryDavidShrimp
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? Fueled by stout performances by Aaron Jones and Ezekiel Elliott, our crew made that a point of emphasis this past week. We doubled Victorious Secret up at running back (45 points to 22). Jones had 192 total yards and a TD, while Elliott logged 93 yards and two scores.
Victorious Secret
Unless Victorious Secret wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 15 times in Week 14. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group hauled in just nine balls.
