Coach Talk

Underachievers
Well done, Underachievers. Fielding a lineup that won by over 31 points in Week 2. Let's tip our cap to the GM of BRADY TO GRONK, take this W in stride, and continue on our way towards a fantasy championship.
BRADY TO GRONK
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) collectively got a respectable 35 targets in Week 2. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group pulled down only 19 balls.
