Coach Talk

The Graveyard
Hey, football is all about creating mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly dominating Tua-finity & beyond at the wide receiver position (72.7 points to 15.8).
Tua-finity & beyond
Tua-finity & beyond may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 9. Chemistry could be the primary issue, as that group notched just eight catches.
