Coach Talk

Buffalo Dots
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. Fueled by stellar showings by Terry McLaurin and Garrett Wilson, our team really took that to heart this past week. We tripled Pooch's 1 at wide receiver (40.7 points to 11.7). McLaurin had 105 receiving yards while Wilson chipped in with 162 yards.
Pooch's 1
Pooch's 1 may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our four pass-catchers (two WR and two TE) were targeted a grand total of 31 times in Week 13. With just 17 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
