Coach Talk

Cool Brees
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Cool Brees: our starting wide receivers were severely outmatched this past week. Jalen Reagor (55 total yards, no TDs) and DJ Chark Jr. (25 yards, one TD) combined for only 16 points in Week 1. For C And K's Crazy Team, Chris Godwin and JuJu Smith-Schuster doubled us up with a score of 32.8. We need to put some more effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
C And K's Crazy Team
