Coach Talk

Kenny's deer
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. Fueled by stellar outings by Justin Jefferson and DK Metcalf, our team really took that to heart this past week. We tripled Green Cheese at wide receiver (105 points to 31.3). Jefferson had 182 receiving yards while Metcalf chipped in with 60 yards.
Green Cheese
Yo, Green Cheese, what'd your receiving crew do to tick off their quarterbacks this week? With just 12 total targets in Week 13, our three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
