Coach Talk

rayray
A big key to success in football is taking advantage of the mismatches. Fueled by some stellar yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team certainly made that happen this week. Our backfield logged 202 more total yards than the RBs on Bob Loblaw (335 yards from scrimmage to 133), as we ultimately tripled them at the position (86.7 points to 26.9).
Bob Loblaw
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our two wide receivers collectively got a grand total of 11 targets in Week 9. With just five total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
