Coach Talk

RussellMania
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by doubling up TeamyMcTeamface at the wide receiver position (65.8 points to 28.2).
TeamyMcTeamface
Unless TeamyMcTeamface wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" is definitely not an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 24 times in Week 2. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they managed just 14 catches.
