Coach Talk

Morning Woodhead
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? With solid performances by Jonathan Taylor and Mike Davis, our crew definitely made that a point of emphasis this past week. We doubled Refrigerator Perry up at running back (64.8 points to 27.1). Taylor had 165 total yards and two TDs, while Davis logged 93 yards and two scores.
Refrigerator Perry
"Not seeing enough looks" really isn't an excuse this week for Refrigerator Perry. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a respectable 31 targets in Week 14. With just 15 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
