Coach Talk

Skip's Team
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up FLORIDA BLITZ at the wide receiver position (35.9 points to 15.3).
FLORIDA BLITZ
Unless FLORIDA BLITZ wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" won't cut it as an excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 26 targets in Week 16. With just 16 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
