Coach Talk

Colton Charles's Expert Team
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Fieros at the wide receiver position (42.02 points to 20.4).
Fieros
Here's a list of scenarios where it's somewhat acceptable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of Dwight Howard free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Greg Joseph may have just toe-bashed himself to the waiver wire after that sort of performance.
