Coach Talk
The Man
The key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Herb Utsmells at the wide receiver position (60.1 points to 27.16).
Herb Utsmells
"Not seeing enough chances" won't fly as an excuse this week for Herb Utsmells. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 24 times in Week 13. With only 10 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
