Coach Talk

ThisisGAYasf
Hey, the key to football is recognizing the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by quadrupling Barcroft Motherchuckers at the wide receiver position (45.5 points to 11).
Barcroft Motherchuckers
Barcroft Motherchuckers will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a hearty 32 targets in Week 4. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 16 receptions.
