Coach Talk

SnitchesGetStitches
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Oblong balls at the wide receiver position (39.9 points to 15).
Oblong balls
Unless Oblong balls wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and two TE) were targeted a hearty 32 times in Week 15. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 14 receptions.
