Coach Talk

Children of Philip ⚡️
Good work deploying a starting crew that tallied nearly 106 points this past week. We deem that to be a job well done. Let's tip our cap to the GM of The Balls Will Come, take this victory in stride, and continue on our way towards the 2019 Bruins FF league title.
The Balls Will Come
Well, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 4. With just 13 total receptions, this group may have some chemistry issues.
