Coach Talk

Dorian’s Battlecats
This sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Our team found one this past week and royally dominated Gridiron Legends at the quarterback position (37 points to 7).
Gridiron Legends
Unless Gridiron Legends wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 18 times in Week 16. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group notched just 10 catches.
