Coach Talk

Bombay's Beauties
Football is all about identifying the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly dominating BRAVE HEART at the wide receiver position (61.5 points to 17.1).
BRAVE HEART
BRAVE HEART will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 25 targets in Week 3. With only 13 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
