Coach Talk

Long Island Steelers
Three wide receivers, two running backs, one tight end, zero touchdowns: The six starting offensive skill players on Long Island Steelers collectively gained a healthy 378 yards from scrimmage. None of those starters could find his way to the end zone in Week 11.
Aussig Spartans
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 11. With only 16 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
