Coach Talk

Nah Son
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Not only did we quadruple CANES MAN at QB (45.5 points to 11.08), we also utterly dominated them at RB (33.9 to 3.8).
CANES MAN
CANES MAN may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a healthy 31 targets in Week 5. With just 18 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
