Coach Talk

Hooligans
Football is all about taking advantage of the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly dominating Vultures at the wide receiver position (92.2 points to 35.35).
Vultures
We were just taking it easy so our players could dominate in Week 7, right? The eight starting offensive position players on Vultures (four WRs, three RBs, one TE) combined to register 397 yards and just two touchdowns this past week. The skill players on Hooligans definitely outperformed us by logging 759 yards and five scores.
