Coach Talk

GioW COWBOYS
Spotting mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by tripling WroWroWro at the wide receiver position (40.3 points to 13.4).
WroWroWro
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 34 times in Week 13. With just 17 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
