Coach Talk

V for ...
Identifying mismatches is a big component to winning in football. We really took that to heart this week by almost tripling Fools and Horses at the wide receiver position (50 points to 17).
Fools and Horses
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's borderline acceptable to go 0-for-2: A hitter's line in baseball, the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the NBA Finals, and a double-fault in tennis. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Chris Boswell might be kicking himself back into the free agent pool after this performance.
