Coach Talk

Boston Hoodies
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Fueled by stout performances by Derrick Henry and Nick Chubb, our team certainly made that a point of emphasis this past week. We utterly dominated Hrustin Cowboys at running back (58.5 points to 23.4). Henry had 222 total yards and two TDs, while Chubb logged 103 yards and two scores.
Hrustin Cowboys
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's excusable to go 0-for-2: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of Shaquille O'Neal free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Wil Lutz might have just kicked himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
