Coach Talk

Tecmo Bo's
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Thanks to a solid display by Trevor Lawrence, we thoroughly outscored Mottley Crew🍻 at the quarterback position this past week (37.82 points to 10.72). Lawrence went 27-for-42 for 318 yards, four TDs, and an INT in a 40-34 victory over the Cowboys.
Mottley Crew🍻
Hey, it's possible that Mottley Crew🍻 might be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing just four targets as a group this past week, their two wide receivers apparently contributed to their respective offenses by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
