Coach Talk

Yokohama Zets
You know, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. Fueled by a solid display from Jalen Hurts, we doubled up AngryBirdman at the quarterback position this past week (32.05 points to 13.75). Hurts went 32-for-48 for 387 yards and two TDs in a 42-30 loss to the Chiefs.
AngryBirdman
Welp, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 34 targets in Week 4. With only 20 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
