Coach Talk

Peppas Pals
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Peppas Pals! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve: our starting running backs were utterly overmatched this past week. James Robinson (29 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Javonte Williams (27 yards, no TDs) combined for just 6.6 points in Week 4, and the starting backfield for Griffin’s Great Team literally quadrupled us with a score of 28.4. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 5!
Griffin’s Great Team
Griffin’s Great Team may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively received a whopping 24 targets in Week 4. With just 14 total catches, this group may have some chemistry issues.
