Coach Talk

Face the Funk!!!
Football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Not only did we nearly triple Kyle Guglielmo at RB (36.1 points to 12.1), we also almost quadrupled them at QB (32.14 to 8.52).
Kyle Guglielmo
Unless Kyle Guglielmo wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many opportunities" isn't really an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 26 times in Week 3. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they recorded just 16 catches.
