Coach Talk

Bizzle's Boys
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. With stellar performances by D'Andre Swift and Alvin Kamara, our team certainly took that to heart this past week. We almost tripled TheSquirter at the running back position (48.6 points to 16.7). Swift had 104 total yards and a TD, while Kamara logged 91 yards.
TheSquirter
Logging four catches on only five targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for TheSquirter should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to start checking down more often.
