Coach Talk

Action Jackson
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Our team found one this past week and thoroughly dominated Kyler the Creator at the quarterback position (37.76 points to 15.06).
Kyler the Creator
Unless Kyler the Creator wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many looks" won't cut it as an excuse this week. As a group, our four wide receivers collectively got a respectable 23 targets in Week 9. Chemistry seems to be the primary issue, as that group reeled in just 13 receptions.
