Coach Talk

Jon s Team
Hey, this sport is all about spotting (and then exploiting) the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling CowSheep at the wide receiver position (48.1 points to 14.8).
CowSheep
Three WRs, two RBs, one TE, zero TDs: The six offensive position starters on CowSheep combined to record a whopping 527 total yards. Not one of those players could get into the end zone in Week 15.
