Coach Talk

Da Algorithm 2.0
The key to success in football is finding the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by quadrupling Toby Tortoise Part 2 at the wide receiver position (58 points to 13).
Toby Tortoise Part 2
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 28 times in Week 6. With only 15 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
