Coach Talk

San Diego Scrams
This sport is all about spotting the mismatches. We really emphasized that by doubling up Screwdrivers at running back this past week (39.85 points to 17.82).
Screwdrivers
There's a real chance that Screwdrivers could be a better talent scout in real football than in fantasy. Accumulating just four targets combined this past week, their two starting pass-catchers (one WR, one TE) apparently spent the majority of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
