Coach Talk

Boom Town
Hey, the key to football is finding the mismatches. Thanks to a solid outing from Drew Brees, we doubled up BGMoney II at the quarterback position this past week (32.14 points to 16.04). Brees orchestrated a big victory over the Colts, completing 29 of 30 passes for 307 yards and four touchdowns.
BGMoney II
Welp, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 40 targets in Week 15. With just 24 total receptions, this group may have some chemistry issues.
