Coach Talk

Texas Heat
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to a stellar showing by Jared Goff, we absolutely dominated 2 Gurleys 1 Cup at the quarterback position this past week (25 points to 7). Goff went 39-for-51 for 376 yards, three TDs, and two INTs in a 27-24 triumph over the Buccaneers.
2 Gurleys 1 Cup
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a healthy 27 targets in Week 11. With just 15 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
