Coach Talk

AC's Broncos
Creating mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Strait Outta Bounds at the wide receiver position (45.91 points to 12.6).
Strait Outta Bounds
Hey, it's possible that Strait Outta Bounds might be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only 16 total targets in Week 7, their five starting pass-catchers (three WR, two TE) apparently spent most of their games running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
