Coach Talk

Wolf of Wall Street
Mission accomplished, Wolf of Wall Street. Assembling a team that logged more than 199 points in Week 2. We should take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Runs Like a Gurley, and continue pushing forward to the RoBail league title.
Runs Like a Gurley
"Not getting many chances" really isn't an excuse this week for Runs Like a Gurley. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to get a healthy 38 targets in Week 2. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they hauled in just 20 balls.
