Coach Talk

Buffalo Sonics
Good work assembling a starting crew that registered 173 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. Let's take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of SHO ing u the way🇯🇵, and continue the march towards the Valley Football YEAR 15 league title.
SHO ing u the way🇯🇵
Unless SHO ing u the way🇯🇵 wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (five WR, one TE) collectively received a respectable 48 targets in Week 6. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they notched just 29 receptions.
