Coach Talk
Superman's Team
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by some stellar yardage production from our running backs, our team really made that happen this week. Our three backfield starters tallied 295 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs of AtomicDawgs20 (378 total yards to 83), and we wound up quadrupling them at the position (55.15 points to 12.8).
AtomicDawgs20
Registering only five targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for AtomicDawgs20 clearly should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to start checking down more often.
