Coach Talk

Omar's Okay Team
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team created a big disparity this week. Our three backfield starters recorded 330 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs on Ben's Best Team (371 total yards to just 41), as we ultimately utterly dominated them at the position (50.1 points to 3.1).
Ben's Best Team
Recording just a couple of targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for Ben's Best Team should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to start checking down more often.
