Coach Talk

Jacksonville Jaguars
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? Fueled by some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team certainly made that happen this week. Our backfield logged 89 more total yards than the RBs on Indianapolis Colts (219 yards from scrimmage to 130), and we wound up doubling up them at the position (58.4 points to 23.5).
Indianapolis Colts
Well, Indianapolis Colts, this week's problem was fairly easy to diagnose. Starting Matt Ryan, Parris Campbell, Isaiah Rodgers Sr., and Rodrigo Blankenship in a tough fantasy matchup... let's consider this to be a learning experience and all agree that it won't happen again?
