Coach Talk

Gary Busey
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up J-Law's Proballers at the wide receiver position (53.9 points to 22.4).
J-Law's Proballers
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 6. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they pulled down only 14 catches.
