Coach Talk

Vittorio Veneto
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Not only did we double up lawrence's Team at QB (25.16 points to 11.28), we also tripled them at WR (29.3 to 9.3).
lawrence's Team
Welp, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 25 times in Week 15. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group reeled in only 14 balls.
