Coach Talk

O'Shaq Hennessy
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. We really took that to heart by quadrupling DWP at running back this past week (29.94 points to 7.07).
DWP
Don't get too down on yourself, DWP! There's a ton we can glean from the 2019 campaign and apply to next year... it's never too early to start doing your homework and thinking about how to get better!
