Coach Talk

Jonathan's Expert Team
Hey, the key to football is finding the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Booboo's Neat Team at the wide receiver position (24.3 points to 9.5).
Booboo's Neat Team
Unless Booboo's Neat Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many opportunities" is definitely not a valid excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 23 times in Week 2. Chemistry could be the primary problem, as that group managed only 14 catches.
