Coach Talk

Can I Haz Touchdown?
Football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really emphasized that by doubling up London Gentlemen at running back this past week (24 points to 10).
London Gentlemen
Unless London Gentlemen wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" is not an excuse this time around. Our two wide receivers collectively received a whopping 15 targets in Week 16. With just eight total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
