Coach Talk

Tidal Wave
Listen Tidal Wave, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's decreased a bit lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 636.37 points through Week 9, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outperforming the 589.66 we needed for this past week's win!
Larry's Team
Larry's Team may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (six WR and two TE) combined to get a respectable 49 targets in Week 10. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they notched only 27 catches.
