Coach Talk

ROCK-n-REDRAIDERS
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart by thoroughly overpowering LambeauLeapers at running back this past week (26 points to 7).
LambeauLeapers
Welp, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 33 times in Week 15. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group tallied just 17 catches.
