Offensively challenged 'T-N-T' Treat'§ knock off Joshua's Team, 18.19-12.85

Despite posting only the 12th-highest point total in the league for the week, 'T-N-T' Treat'§ secured an 18.19-12.85 win over Joshua's Team.

Coach Talk

'T-N-T' Treat'§
Listen, 'T-N-T' Treat'§, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Playing not one, not two, but SEVEN starters with zero points while still getting the W... that's playing with fire. All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Joshua's Team
Unless Joshua's Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many chances" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this time around. As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 26 times in Week 2. With just 14 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
