Coach Talk

Havoc
Spotting mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Not only did we dominate ExigentCircumstances at RB (57.1 points to 22.8), we also nearly tripled them at WR (73.9 to 26.6).
ExigentCircumstances
It's entirely possible that ExigentCircumstances could be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just 19 total targets this past week, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
