Coach Talk

Bruisin’ Egos
Whoa, Bruisin’ Egos, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this blowout. Not only did you win by more than 38 points, you also climbed from eighth place to fifth in the league standings!
O'Doyle Rules!
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a respectable 38 targets in Week 3. With only 23 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
