Coach Talk

The Hair Diapers
A big key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to stellar numbers from our pass-catchers, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We doubled up Terry's Team at wide receiver (35.4 points to 14.6). Adam Thielen had 110 receiving yards and two TDs while DJ Moore chipped in with 54 yards.
Terry's Team
We just took it easy so our guys could dominate in Week 2, right? The six starting offensive position players (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) on Terry's Team combined to register 350 yards and no touchdowns in Week 1. The skill players on The Hair Diapers definitely outperformed us by logging 516 yards and five scores.
