Coach Talk

prespLAy
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by nearly quadrupling Caribbean Bombers at the wide receiver position (60 points to 16).
Caribbean Bombers
So, Caribbean Bombers, what did your receiving crew do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? Seeing just 16 targets as a group in Week 2, our four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
