Coach Talk

Blazin Blitzers
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a stellar performance by Ryan Tannehill, we quadrupled OLR at the quarterback position this past week (34 points to 8). Tannehill went 29-for-45 for 389 yards, three TDs, and an INT in a 41-35 loss to the Browns.
OLR
Logging three receptions on just four measly targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for OLR should remind their quarterbacks to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
