Coach Talk

Butt Ruckers
The key to success in football is identifying the mismatches. Thanks to some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team created a noticeable disparity this week. Our backfield logged 143 more total yards than the RBs on Sandbagging (291 yards from scrimmage to 148), and we wound up quadrupling them at the position (46.1 points to 10.8).
Sandbagging
Unless Sandbagging wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many chances" isn't really a valid excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, two TE) were targeted a respectable 36 times in Week 6. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in only 21 balls.
