Coach Talk

Lightning Bolts
Wow, the Seahawks secondary didn't see it coming! 31 connections on 38 attempts: good enough for an 82% completion percentage for Josh Allen. We know the GM of Lightning Bolts is appreciative of this type of attention to detail.
michael's Team
michael's Team will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 20 times in Week 9. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they recorded only 10 catches.
