Coach Talk

HUNGRY DOG
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by royally dominating Sea Devil at the wide receiver position (38.9 points to 14.2).
Sea Devil
Unless Sea Devil wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many chances" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a respectable 22 times in Week 10. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group pulled down only 12 balls.
