Coach Talk

Raiders4Life
Hey, football is all about finding the mismatches. Fueled by some stellar yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a big disparity this week. Our three backfield starters logged 113 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs of Outlaws (271 total yards to 158), as we ultimately royally dominated them at the position (48.5 points to 19.3).
Outlaws
Welp, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 46 targets in Week 16. With only 28 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
