Coach Talk

Bad Mother Tucker
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to some monster yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a noticeable disparity this week. Our three starting backs put up 161 more total yards than the RBs of Lincoln High (326 yards from scrimmage to 165), and we wound up doubling up them at the position, 186.01 points to 77.12.
Lincoln High
Unless Lincoln High wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough looks" won't cut it as an excuse this week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 34 times in Week 9. With only 19 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
