Coach Talk

H-Town Finest
Identifying mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Thanks to some monster yardage production from our running backs, our team created a big disparity this week. Our three backfield starters logged 115 more total yards than the RBs of Mike's Team (312 yards from scrimmage to 197), as we ultimately almost tripled them at the position, 55.2 points to 19.7.
Mike's Team
Welp, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a respectable 30 targets in Week 15. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group notched only 18 receptions.
