Coach Talk

deathmule - 50
A big key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by stellar production out of our ball-carriers, our team definitely made that a point of emphasis this past week. We royally dominated Boba Fett at the running back position (39.3 points to 4.5). James White had 112 total yards and two TDs, while Kerryon Johnson logged 56 yards.
Boba Fett
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 36 targets in Week 4. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group managed just 21 receptions.
