Coach Talk

Diddy
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to stellar performances by David Montgomery and Leonard Fournette, our team certainly took that to heart this past week. We doubled Sesquipedantic Squad up at the running back position (35.3 points to 14.2). Montgomery had 141 total yards and a TD, while Fournette logged 92 yards.
Sesquipedantic Squad
Logging only three targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Sesquipedantic Squad should investigate why their QBs are giving them the silent treatment.
