Coach Talk

Bring It!
This sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Our team found one this past week and nearly tripled The Footballas at the quarterback position (38.45 points to 12.95).
The Footballas
"Not seeing enough looks" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for The Footballas. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 34 targets in Week 12. With just 17 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
