Coach Talk

Porketta Sandwiches
Creating mismatches is a big key to success in football. Not only did we double up Gold guided gladiators at WR (48.9 points to 21.9), we also doubled them at RB (48.8 to 20.5).
Gold guided gladiators
"Not seeing many opportunities" really isn't an excuse this week for Gold guided gladiators. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 19 times in Week 15. With just 11 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
