Coach Talk

Wendell's Unreal Team
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Michael's Marvelous Team at the wide receiver position (44.8 points to 19.4).
Michael's Marvelous Team
Unless Michael's Marvelous Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many opportunities" cannot be an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to see a grand total of 24 targets in Week 16. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group pulled down only 14 receptions.
