Coach Talk

DominationStation
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by tripling Roughnecks at the wide receiver position (53.8 points to 16.15).
Roughnecks
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 30 times in Week 6. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they managed just 14 catches.
