Coach Talk

Hit The Showers Boys
Spotting mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by almost quadrupling Gronkey Kong at the wide receiver position (33.2 points to 8.8).
Gronkey Kong
Yo, Gronkey Kong, did your receivers talk bad about their quarterbacks or something? Seeing only seven total targets this past week, our three wide receivers obviously need to get on their QBs' good sides this week in practice.
