Coach Talk

MN Snow Dawgs
Hey, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches, right? Thanks to good production out of our ball-carriers, our squad definitely took that to heart this past week. We doubled Bad Intentions up at running back (34.2 points to 14.17). With 133 total yards and a TD, Saquon Barkley did most of the damage, while Michael Carter chipped in with 50 yards.
Bad Intentions
Well, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 37 times in Week 16. With only 21 total receptions, this group may have some chemistry issues.
