Coach Talk

12 Just 2 Louder
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Thanks to solid performances by Josh Jacobs and Miles Sanders, our team certainly took that to heart this past week. We doubled Red Solo Kupp up at running back (31.8 points to 15.2). Jacobs had 40 total yards and two TDs, while Sanders chipped in with 113 yards.
Red Solo Kupp
Take my word for it (since I'm a coach who's lived life on the hot seat)... If this "fantasy GM" thing doesn't work out, you can always fall back on that scrappy Graduate Assistant job available at the community college down the road!
