Coach Talk

The Spicy Floonz
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by royally dominating Liquor Wrecked’ Em at the wide receiver position (52 points to 20.72).
Liquor Wrecked’ Em
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 17 times in Week 13. With just nine total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
