Coach Talk

Puh
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by stellar production from our receiving corps, our team really took that to heart this past week. We tripled HoTombo at wide receiver (30.96 points to 9.83). Kenny Golladay had 158 receiving yards while Tyler Boyd logged 59 yards.
HoTombo
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 15 times in Week 13. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group hauled in only seven balls.
