Coach Talk

Robin's Hoods
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. We not only doubled up Pulsechamber at WR (42.1 points to 18.3), we also tripled them at RB (30.4 to 8.8).
Pulsechamber
Well, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 17 times in Week 17. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they hauled in only 10 catches.
