Coach Talk

Detroit Deathstars
Listen Detroit Deathstars, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's decreased a bit recently, I'll choose to take the high road. Averaging 118.27 points through Week 9, our crew has definitely proven that it's even better than the 73.92 we needed for this past week's win!
순열's Bold Team
Unless 순열's Bold Team wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 18 times in Week 10. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group recorded just nine catches.
