Coach Talk

IKnowNothing!
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, IKnowNothing!! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then we have found an area to improve: our running backs were soundly outplayed by the opposition. Our backfield produced just 16.6 points in Week 13, while the starting backfield for Drumski doubled us up with a score of 36.7. Let's work with the O-line to find some more holes in Week 14!
Drumski
Lots of cake, no icing: The six offensive skill starters (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) on Drumski collectively gained a healthy 488 total yards. None of those starters was able to score a touchdown in Week 13.
