Coach Talk

EuroStepBack
Wow, EuroStepBack, you really made a statement to your leaguemates with this explosive showing. Not only did you win by 62 points, you also climbed a staggering three spots in the league standings!
Homer's Team
Well, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 43 times in Week 6. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they tallied only 26 catches.
