Coach Talk

TheGuiseIsLoose!
Football is all about identifying the mismatches. We really emphasized that by doubling up Suck My Ditka! at running back this past week (27.93 points to 12.9).
Suck My Ditka!
There's a real chance that Suck My Ditka! might be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. With just 15 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently made most of their contributions by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
