Coach Talk

Barn’s Fantasy Guru Svet
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We made that a point of emphasis by tripling Gary Busey at running back this past week (38.5 points to 11.1).
Gary Busey
Gary Busey may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 30 times in Week 16. With only 16 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
