Coach Talk

El Gato's Team 1
Bravo on assembling a starting crew that won by 10 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right.
Ashley's Great Team
Recording two receptions on only three targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for Ashley's Great Team should work to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more frequently.
