Coach Talk

Jeff's Definitive Team
Hey, the key to football is recognizing the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by doubling up timmy's Majestic Team at the wide receiver position (41.4 points to 18.6).
timmy's Majestic Team
Unless timmy's Majestic Team wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many chances" is definitely not an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to see a respectable 34 targets in Week 16. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group pulled down just 19 receptions.
