Coach Talk

Just Joshin'
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? Our squad found one this past week and royally dominated Mountain Climbing Jellyfish at the quarterback position (24.98 points to 9.86).
Mountain Climbing Jellyfish
Unless Mountain Climbing Jellyfish wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 14 times in Week 16. With only four total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
