Coach Talk

Jaymin
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by tripling Colts_P神 at the wide receiver position (28 points to 8.2).
Colts_P神
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 21 targets in Week 5. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group pulled down just 13 balls.
