Coach Talk

LOVE Brokers
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by some stellar yardage production from our running backs, our team certainly made that happen this week. Our three starting backs logged 272 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs on 11 Angry Men (441 total yards to 169), and we wound up utterly dominating them at the position, 70.6 points to 14.4.
11 Angry Men
Welp, we can't really whine about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) collectively got a hearty 18 targets in Week 15. Chemistry seems to be an issue, as that group notched only 11 catches.
