Coach Talk

Fightin' Irish
The key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Switch Hitter at the wide receiver position (33.8 points to 13.7).
Switch Hitter
With three catches on just four measly targets this past week, the starting RBs for Switch Hitter clearly need to smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to start checking down more often.
