Coach Talk

tim brown raiders
Creating mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Case in point: we really took that to heart by thoroughly dominating Zeus1604 Saints at running back this past week (15.71 points to 3.14).
Zeus1604 Saints
Unless Zeus1604 Saints wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) combined to see a hearty 15 targets in Week 15. With just eight total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
