Coach Talk

Burgtown Bombers
Hey, this sport is all about spotting the mismatches. Thanks to a sound showing from Lamar Jackson, we thoroughly outscored The Excellector at the quarterback position this past week (55.45 points to 15.35). Jackson went 15-for-20 for 169 yards and five TDs in a 45-6 triumph over the Rams.
The Excellector
Unless The Excellector wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (five WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 55 times in Week 12. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group tallied only 32 catches.
