Coach Talk

Charlie Murphy's Unreal Team
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly dominating t's Nice Team at the wide receiver position (39.5 points to 10.7).
t's Nice Team
Unless t's Nice Team wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 18 targets in Week 3. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group reeled in just 11 catches.
