Coach Talk

Prestige Worldwide
The key to success in football is spotting the mismatches. Our squad took that to heart this past week and nearly tripled Sayers Monsters at the quarterback position (61.64 points to 22.22).
Sayers Monsters
Welp, we can't really whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our five pass-catchers (three WR and two TE) collectively got a grand total of 33 targets in Week 12. With just 19 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
