Coach Talk

.
Identifying mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Fueled by some stellar yardage production from our running backs, our team certainly made that happen this week. Our three starting backs logged 215 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs of HUGH JASSEL (366 total yards to 151), as we ultimately nearly tripled them at the position, 81.6 points to 29.1.
HUGH JASSEL
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 27 times in Week 5. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group hauled in only 16 receptions.
