Coach Talk
lefty's Crazy Team
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling GroundNPound at the wide receiver position (42.3 points to 13.7).
GroundNPound
Unless GroundNPound wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" is not a reasonable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 19 targets in Week 7. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they pulled down only 11 receptions.
