Coach Talk

Kurtis's Bold Team
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by almost tripling 2 Girls 1 Cup at the wide receiver position (57.6 points to 20.2).
2 Girls 1 Cup
Unless 2 Girls 1 Cup wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough looks" can't be an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 25 times in Week 16. With only nine total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
