Coach Talk

Diggin Heat
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Case in point: we really took that to heart by doubling up Dome Patrollers at running back this past week (26.7 points to 11.1).
Dome Patrollers
Unless Dome Patrollers wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 21 targets in Week 15. With only 12 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
