Coach Talk

The Swashbucklers
Spotting mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Not only did we double up ray's Terrific Team at QB (18.32 points to 7.7), we also quadrupled them at RB (29.7 to 7.1).
ray's Terrific Team
With only a pair of receptions this past week, the starting RBs for ray's Terrific Team should work to smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
