Coach Talk

Crimson Alchemists
This sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by a stellar showing from Jimmy Garoppolo, we doubled up Thingys at the quarterback position this past week (28 points to 14). Garoppolo went 34-for-45 for 424 yards, four TDs, and two INTs in a 36-26 win over the Cardinals.
Thingys
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) collectively received a grand total of 22 targets in Week 11. With only 13 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
