Coach Talk

BuiltRamTough
Hey, the key to football is taking advantage of the mismatches. Thanks to a solid display by Matt Ryan, we thoroughly outscored Flash at the quarterback position this past week (23.82 points to 5.17). Ryan went 22-for-36 for 231 yards and two TDs in a 40-14 win over the Cardinals.
Flash
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 30 times in Week 15. With just 14 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
