Coach Talk

Abby’s Amazing Team
Spotting mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up I like cox at the wide receiver position (93.8 points to 41.2).
I like cox
With only three receptions this past week, the starting running backs for I like cox should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
