Coach Talk

Los intocables
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Los intocables! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve: our starting quarterback was thoroughly outclassed this past week. Matthew Stafford went 24-of-30 for 307 yards and two touchdowns for NSW Hitmen, and all Russell Wilson could manage through the air was 172 passing yards. Let's put some more effort into studying those playbooks!
NSW Hitmen
Unless NSW Hitmen wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough looks" is not a viable excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) collectively saw a respectable 38 targets in Week 4. With only 19 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
