Coach Talk

Rose's Nice Team
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to some monster yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a big disparity this week. Our three starting backs tallied 100 more total yards than the RBs of Superman's Team (187 yards from scrimmage to 87), as we ultimately royally dominated them at the position (35.1 points to 5.6).
Superman's Team
"Not getting many chances" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Superman's Team. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to get a hearty 22 targets in Week 16. With only 11 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
