Coach Talk

Euler's Method 4
Wow, Euler's Method 4, you put the rest of the league on notice with this blowout. Not only did you win by 37+ points, you also jumped up a whopping three places in the league standings... directly into the thick of the playoff hunt
Cruz Cartel
"Not getting enough looks" really isn't an excuse this week for Cruz Cartel. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 31 times in Week 10. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group hauled in only 16 balls.
