Coach Talk

Bums
Bravo on assembling a lineup that produced almost 204 points this past week. We deem that to be a job well done. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Jaire's Island, take this win in stride, and continue our march towards the Full IDP Dynasty league title.
Jaire's Island
Unless Jaire's Island wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough opportunities" is not an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 17 targets in Week 15. With only nine total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
