Coach Talk

Beer Pressure
Identifying mismatches is a huge key to success in football. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up The Snack Attack at the wide receiver position (24.2 points to 9.74).
The Snack Attack
"Not getting many opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for The Snack Attack. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 15. With just eight total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
