Coach Talk

yard crew
Hey, the key to football is creating and exploiting the mismatches, right? We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Laces Out at the wide receiver position (45.15 points to 9.75).
Laces Out
Hey, it's possible that Laces Out might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. With only 12 targets as a group in Week 11, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently spent the majority of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
