Coach Talk

Ridgemont Wolves
You know, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. Case in point: we really took that to heart by doubling up Ballers at running back this past week (57.9 points to 26.03).
Ballers
Unless Ballers wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough looks" is definitely not a valid excuse this week. As a group, our three wide receivers collectively got a grand total of 22 targets in Week 13. Chemistry seems to be a problem, as that group hauled in only 13 receptions.
