Coach Talk

Jumpin' Bones
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Our team took that to heart this past week and thoroughly outscored Superman's Team at the quarterback position (15.2 points to 6.01).
Superman's Team
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 19 targets in Week 12. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group managed just seven catches.
