Coach Talk

RG3PO
Hey, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. Our team took that to heart this past week and literally tripled Blacktips at the quarterback position (39.3 points to 12.02).
Blacktips
With just one reception this past week, the starting RBs for Blacktips should remind their QBs to check down more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
