Coach Talk

ND IRISH
Props on assembling a lineup that won by nearly 49 points this past week. We took care of business and did what we had to do. We should take this win in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Poppin yo cheeks, and continue our march towards a fantasy championship.
Poppin yo cheeks
Unless Poppin yo cheeks wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a respectable 26 targets in Week 6. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they hauled in just 16 balls.
