Coach Talk

The Demons
Hey, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling Highcotton at the wide receiver position (33.76 points to 10.5).
Highcotton
Talk about under-utilized. The starting backfield for Highcotton collectively logged four catches on just five targets this past week. Get those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 14!
