Coach Talk

Strat-O-Matics
Getting the win is most important, Strat-O-Matics, but we've also identified one spot where we can get better as a team. Our wide receivers were thoroughly outplayed by the opposition. Emmanuel Sanders (24 total yards, no TDs) and Julio Jones (79 yards, no TDs) combined for just 12.8 points in Week 10. The pass-catchers for 4 Cam 629 doubled us up with a score of 29.2. Let's sweet-talk the QB to get some more targets in Week 11!
4 Cam 629
4 Cam 629 will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 17 targets in Week 10. Chemistry seems to be the primary problem, as that group reeled in just 10 receptions.
