Coach Talk

Volcano Man
Bravo, Volcano Man. Good job assembling a lineup that blew the competition out by more than 57 points in Week 2. We should keep this momentum as we move on to our Week 3 matchup.
Sir Luka
Unless Sir Luka wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing enough chances" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 17 times in Week 2. Those players should participate in some additional timing drills with their QBs, considering they recorded just nine catches.
