Coach Talk

Dinner for Schaubs
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Gang Green at the wide receiver position (46.6 points to 20).
Gang Green
Well, we certainly can't whine about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 23 times in Week 15. With just 13 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
