Coach Talk

Matt's Team
Hey, this sport is all about finding the mismatches, right? Not only did we double up HITMAN at QB (32.5 points to 14.35), we also thoroughly dominated them at RB (28.9 to 5.5).
HITMAN
HITMAN will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 17 targets in Week 6. With just nine total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
