Coach Talk
JUST IN the end zone
Earning the win is most important, JUST IN the end zone, but we definitely know of one spot where we should improve as a team. Our running backs were soundly outplayed by the opposition. Dalvin Cook (43 total yards, no TDs) and Leonard Fournette (73 yards, no TDs) combined for only 20.6 points in Week 15. Marlon Mack and Ezekiel Elliott doubled us up with a score of 45.4.
Quit Amari-ing myDak
Recording three catches on just four targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Quit Amari-ing myDak should remind their quarterbacks to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
