Coach Talk

Judge Jeudy
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? Thanks to some monster yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team really made that happen this week. Our three starting backs put up 176 more total yards than the RBs on SpotiOtiDopaliscious (226 yards from scrimmage to only 50), as we ultimately royally dominated them at the position, 31.6 points to 12.
SpotiOtiDopaliscious
With only a pair of receptions this past week, the starting RBs for SpotiOtiDopaliscious should investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
