Coach Talk

justin f's Team
Hey, we do admire the confidence this past week, justin f's Team. It's a bold move to start a player with zero points (the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense), while still earning the win! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we're toast.
Tornado Alley
Tornado Alley may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) collectively got a whopping 38 targets in Week 1. With only 21 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
