Coach Talk

Fools and Horses
Nice work assembling a lineup that netted 118 points this past week. We did what we had to do and took care of business. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Shalabajzeri, take this W in stride, and continue on our way towards the Vince Lombardi Keeper League title.
Shalabajzeri
Unless Shalabajzeri wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough looks" can't be a viable excuse this time around. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 31 times in Week 1. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group notched only 16 receptions.
