Coach Talk

Robin's Hoods
Bravo, Robin's Hoods. Deploying a starting crew that registered 121.64 points in Week 7. Let's keep this momentum as we step into our Week 8 matchup.
Tds and Beer
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) collectively got a healthy 26 targets in Week 7. With just 11 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
