Coach Talk

Django
Nice work, Django. Kudos on fielding a starting crew that netted 155 points this past week. Let's take this W in stride, tip our cap to the GM of STOW THUNDER!!, and continue the march towards a fantasy title.
STOW THUNDER!!
Well, we can't really whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 26 times in Week 3. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they reeled in just 15 receptions.
