Coach Talk

Buffalo Sonics
Mission accomplished, Buffalo Sonics. Nice work fielding a starting crew that netted 193 points this past matchup. Let's keep this momentum rolling as we move on to what could be a favorable Week 4 matchup.

Welp, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 3. Chemistry seems to be the primary issue, as that group pulled down only 15 balls.
