Coach Talk

Balmain Forever
Hey, this sport is all about spotting and exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to some stellar yardage production from our ball-carriers, our team created a noticeable disparity this week. Our backfield recorded 106 more total yards than the RBs on MR's Majestic Team (138 yards from scrimmage to only 32), and we ended up royally dominating them at the position (15.8 points to 3.2).
MR's Majestic Team
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 19 targets in Week 10. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they managed just 11 catches.
