Coach Talk

Over The Hill Gang
Bravo on assembling a lineup that won by almost 46 points this past week. We deem that to be a job done right. We should take this win in stride, tip our cap to the GM of MACz Big DaddyZ, and continue the march towards the NYOFACE DYNASTY FOOTBALL 2018 league championship.
MACz Big DaddyZ
"Not getting many opportunities" isn't a reasonable excuse this week for MACz Big DaddyZ. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) collectively received a whopping 17 targets in Week 3. With only eight total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
