Coach Talk

Real United FC 1848
You know, the key to football is taking advantage of the mismatches. Fueled by stellar numbers from our pass-catchers, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We tripled The Phantom Limbs at wide receiver (24.5 points to 8). Michael Thomas had 129 receiving yards while JuJu Smith-Schuster chipped in with 116 yards.
The Phantom Limbs
The Phantom Limbs will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 13 times in Week 3. With only six total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
