Coach Talk

G's Bold Team
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by soundly outplaying Austin's Team at the wide receiver position (54.1 points to 11.2).
Austin's Team
Unless Austin's Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough chances" is not a viable excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 27 targets in Week 15. With only 14 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
