Coach Talk

GX s99 TLG 20 U
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. We really took that to heart this week by utterly dominating Heroes at the wide receiver position (65.4 points to 25.3).
Heroes
Hey, Heroes, what did your receiving crew do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? Seeing only 16 total targets this past week, our four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
