Coach Talk

Ganaderos
Hey, this sport is all about creating mismatches, right? Our team won the battle in numerous key spots this week: we doubled Bashers at QB (59.5 points to 26.5), quadrupled them at RB (46.1 to 10.7), and utterly dominated them at WR (54.4 to 5.5).
Bashers
Unless Bashers wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many looks" can't be a valid excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively received a grand total of 17 targets in Week 18. With just nine total receptions, this group may have some chemistry issues.
