Coach Talk

Bishop Sycamore alumni
Hey, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. Not only did we double up Steelers Wheels at RB (33.6 points to 14.2), we also royally dominated them at WR (28.1 to 11).
Steelers Wheels
Logging just a pair of receptions on four measly targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for Steelers Wheels should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
