Coach Talk

Daniel's Dandy Team
Props to you, Daniel's Dandy Team. Putting together a starting crew that registered 132.51 points in Week 10. We should take this victory in stride, tip our cap to the GM of ScroogeMcRunningback, and continue the march towards the EX-FL (since 2008) league title.
ScroogeMcRunningback
ScroogeMcRunningback will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 36 times in Week 10. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group tallied just 18 catches.
