Coach Talk

Quaran-TEAM
Whoa, Quaran-TEAM, you got friends at SpaceX or something? Along with a nearly 38-point victory, you also launched yourself up to fifth place in the league standings!
Sesquepedantic Squad
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a whopping 15 targets in Week 4. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group reeled in just nine balls.
