Coach Talk

Fania's Team
Nice job, Fania's Team. Kudos on deploying a lineup that earned 240 points this past matchup. We should keep this momentum going as we roll into our next challenge in Week 4.
K Bizzle's Team
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 35 targets in Week 3. With only 21 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
