Coach Talk

Tiger Jay
Identifying mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to a stellar display from Josh Allen, we doubled up 4th & 16 at the quarterback position this past week (60.65 points to 24.45). Allen went 20-for-31 for 424 yards, four TDs, and an INT in a 38-3 triumph over the Steelers.
4th & 16
Trust me on this one, 4th & 16... Seeing as I'm a coach who's lived life on the hot seat: if this whole "fantasy football GM" thing doesn't work out, you can take comfort in the fact that there's always that scrappy Assistant Coaching job available at the local high school down the street!
