Coach Talk

Mr. Phamtastic
Hey, this sport is all about taking advantage of the mismatches. Case in point: we really took that to heart by thoroughly dominating Jinxproof at running back this past week (43 points to 16.8).
Jinxproof
Well, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 21 times in Week 12. With just 12 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
