Coach Talk

yard crew
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Fueled by a awesome performance from Matt Ryan, we doubled up da squirts at the quarterback position this past week (31.56 points to 14.92). Ryan was tremendous in a victory over the Buccaneers, hitting 31 of 41 passes for 354 yards and three TDs.
da squirts
Unless da squirts wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough opportunities" isn't really a reasonable excuse this week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 6. With just 14 total receptions, this group may have some chemistry issues.
