Coach Talk

We Pack the Meat
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by soundly outplaying Greenbay Ballers at the wide receiver position (91.5 points to 25.5).
Greenbay Ballers
Greenbay Ballers may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 31 times in Week 14. With only 15 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
