Coach Talk

Joshua's Team
Nice job, Joshua's Team. Props on fielding a lineup that blew the opposition out by more than 23 points this past matchup. We should take this victory in stride, tip our cap to the GM of 'T-N-T' Treat'§, and continue on our way towards a fantasy title.
'T-N-T' Treat'§
"Not getting many chances" isn't a valid excuse this week for 'T-N-T' Treat'§. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 19 times in Week 3. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group reeled in just nine balls.
