Coach Talk

Shake and Bake
Putting together a lineup that won by more than 14 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do. We should keep this momentum as we move on to a tricky challenge in Week 2.
Boondock Saints 16
Boondock Saints 16 may find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. Our five pass-catchers (three WR and two TE) collectively got a respectable 33 targets in Week 1. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 18 catches.
