Coach Talk

Chase is on the Case
Hey, football is all about finding the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by doubling up JonA's Breathtaking Team at the wide receiver position (75.6 points to 36.9).
JonA's Breathtaking Team
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 33 targets in Week 1. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they recorded just 20 receptions.
