Coach Talk

Gotslossed1001
Football is all about creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling Star City Arrows at the wide receiver position (53.6 points to 17.34).
Star City Arrows
"Not seeing many chances" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Star City Arrows. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 18 times in Week 8. With just 10 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
