Coach Talk

EastRock
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Not only did we nearly triple The Bonesmashers at WR (33 points to 12), we also thoroughly dominated them at QB (45 points to 7).
The Bonesmashers
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 33 times in Week 12. With just 17 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
