Coach Talk

Golden Moose
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Matty Ice at the wide receiver position (50.13 points to 23.8).
Matty Ice
Producing only five targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Matty Ice should work to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more frequently.
