Coach Talk

rayray
Bravo, rayray. Good work assembling a lineup that nearly recorded 197 points in Week 5. We should keep this momentum as we step into our next matchup in Week 6.
Lambeau Leapers
"Not seeing many chances" won't fly as an excuse this week for Lambeau Leapers. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to see a hearty 26 targets in Week 5. With just 14 total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
