Coach Talk

Vegas Heat
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Not only did we double up Steve's Swag Team at QB (55.53 points to 23.26), we also quadrupled them at RB (31.4 to 7.7).
Steve's Swag Team
With three catches on only four measly targets this past week, the starting RBs for Steve's Swag Team should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
