Coach Talk

Do it the Calla-Way
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Flashed Gordonians at the wide receiver position (50 points to 21.5).
Flashed Gordonians
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 27 targets in Week 4. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they pulled down just 16 catches.
