Coach Talk

Pepper Pike Vikings
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a thrilling display from Deshaun Watson, we doubled up NJ Cashflow 2019 at the quarterback position this past week (39 points to 17). Watson went 33-for-41 for 373 yards and two TDs in a 27-20 loss to the Colts.
NJ Cashflow 2019
Unless NJ Cashflow 2019 wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" isn't really an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 30 targets in Week 15. With only 16 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
