Coach Talk
That Guy
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Dawg Pound at the wide receiver position (30.7 points to 13.8).
Dawg Pound
Dawg Pound will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 11. With just nine total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
