Coach Talk

BULLS09
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by quadrupling Dolphin Mania at the wide receiver position (28 points to 7).
Dolphin Mania
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) collectively received a hearty 24 targets in Week 16. With only 13 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
