Coach Talk

Joshua's Team
Nice work assembling a lineup that registered 34.78 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. We should tip our cap to the GM of CROWN ME #1, take this W in stride, and continue our march towards the DEFEN$IVE GURU$ 2019 league championship.
CROWN ME #1
Unless CROWN ME #1 wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many opportunities" isn't really a reasonable excuse this week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 36 times in Week 2. With just 21 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
