Coach Talk

Arin Johnson's Team
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Arin Johnson's Team! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve: our starting wide receivers were thoroughly outmatched by the opposition. Van Jefferson Jr. (eight yards from scrimmage, no TDs) logged just 9.4 points in Week 6. The starting wideouts for Greathope4Houston almost tripled us up with a score of 27.7. We need to bounce back with a big statement in Week 7!
Greathope4Houston
With only two catches this past week, the starting running backs for Greathope4Houston should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
