Coach Talk

Team Margaritaville
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches, right? With great performances by Kareem Hunt and James Conner, our squad certainly made that a point of emphasis this past week. We doubled Austin's Team up at running back (42.2 points to 19.3). Hunt had 101 total yards and two TDs, while Conner logged 121 yards.
Austin's Team
We were just taking it easy so our guys could dominate in next week, right? The six offensive position starters on Austin's Team (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) collectively put up 317 yards and just two touchdowns in Week 2. Our opposition's skill players stuffed the statsheet by logging 535 yards and five scores.
