Stalin Colinet
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no other way to put this, Stalin Colinet. Our starting running backs were soundly outclassed by the opposition. Held back by Sony Michel (19 total yards, no TDs) and Jordan Howard (four yards, one TD), our three RBs combined for only 17.8 points in Week 2, and the starting backfield for Cracklings showed us how it's supposed to be done by putting up a score of 63.6. Let's persuade the offensive coordinator to get some more touches in Week 3!
Cracklings
Unless Cracklings wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 31 targets in Week 2. With only 19 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
