Coach Talk

BALLSWIN
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling Axel at the wide receiver position (51.4 points to 15.6).
Axel
Unless Axel wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough looks" cannot be a reasonable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, two TE) combined to see a hearty 28 targets in Week 10. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group pulled down only 15 balls.
