Coach Talk

Simply Too Fabulous
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Simply Too Fabulous! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve. Our starting running backs were severely outplayed by the opposition. Buoyed by Antonio Gibson (14 total yards, no TDs) and Gus Edwards (101 yards, no TDs), our three RBs combined for only 47.63 points in Week 13, and the starting backfield for GREEN LEGION doubled us up with a score of 106.53. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 14!
GREEN LEGION
Well, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 28 times in Week 13. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they pulled down just 17 receptions.
