Coach Talk

Booooo Luck
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by soundly outplaying Maxdeflation at the wide receiver position (79.4 points to 30.9).
Maxdeflation
Maxdeflation may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) combined to get a healthy 26 targets in Week 4. With only 15 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
