Coach Talk

Amanda Hugginkiss™️
Well Amanda Hugginkiss™️, the good news is that we took this matchup by 15.68 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through five weeks was 112.19. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
DITKA
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) combined to receive a respectable 23 targets in Week 6. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they reeled in just 14 balls.
