Coach Talk

ROUGHRIDERS
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Not only did we quadruple Adam's Team at QB (28 points to 7), we also thoroughly dominated them at RB (44 to 5).
Adam's Team
"Not seeing enough looks" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Adam's Team. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) combined to see a hearty 24 targets in Week 14. With just 13 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
