Coach Talk

Naperville Pineapple
Talk about a bounce-back... The GM of Naperville Pineapple shrugged off their three-game winless skid by putting up a staggering 116 points this past week!
Throw up the X
"Not seeing many looks" won't cut it as an excuse this week for Throw up the X. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 11. With just seven total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
