Coach Talk

Billsrback
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Our team took that to heart this past week and doubled up Jags Den at the quarterback position (73 points to 31).
Jags Den
So, Jags Den, what did your receiving crew do to tick off their quarterbacks this week? With just 38 targets combined this past week, our 10 starting pass-catchers (seven WR, three TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
