Coach Talk

Neopol jets
You know Neopol jets, the good news is that we took this matchup by more than five points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through nine weeks was 112.77. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
Slinks Mayhem
Unless Slinks Mayhem wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 25 times in Week 10. With just 14 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
