Coach Talk

A team has no name
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Legion of BOOM at the wide receiver position (55.13 points to 15.13).
Legion of BOOM
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 20 times in Week 5. Those players should spend extra practice time working with their QBs, considering they tallied just 12 receptions.
