Coach Talk

The Replacements
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. Fueled by a solid display from Lamar Jackson, we doubled up BallGrabbers at the quarterback position this past week (48.72 points to 20.48). Jackson was a bright spot in a close loss to the Dolphins, hitting 21 of 29 passes for 318 yards and three touchdowns.
BallGrabbers
"Not seeing enough looks" really isn't an excuse this week for BallGrabbers. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a respectable 37 targets in Week 2. With just 22 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
