Coach Talk

The mystery machine
Yo, The mystery machine, you put the rest of the league on notice with this victory. In addition to a 40.7-point victory, you also jumped up a couple of spots in the league standings!
What The Shit
"Not seeing enough chances" isn't an excuse this week for What The Shit. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 21 targets in Week 9. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group reeled in only 12 receptions.
