Coach Talk

Team Rudebrewd
Whoa, Team Rudebrewd, you put the rest of the league on notice with this shellacking. Along with a nearly 24-point victory, you also climbed a whopping three spots in the league standings!
Matty Ice Ice Baby
Unless Matty Ice Ice Baby wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough opportunities" is definitely not an excuse this week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 24 targets in Week 2. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group managed just 11 receptions.
