Coach Talk
JWE25
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. Fueled by stellar outings by Diontae Johnson and Chris Godwin, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We almost quadrupled Cody's Phenomenal Team at wide receiver (29.2 points to 7.6). Johnson had 105 receiving yards while Godwin logged 62 yards.
Cody's Phenomenal Team
"Not getting enough opportunities" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Cody's Phenomenal Team. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 20 times in Week 2. With just nine total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
