Coach Talk

Isotopes
Wow, Isotopes, you put the rest of the league on notice with this explosive showing. Not only did you win by 26.64 points, you also jumped up from eighth place to sixth in the league standings... right into the thick of the playoff hunt
Wayne's Wacky Weasels
Unless Wayne's Wacky Weasels wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a respectable 32 targets in Week 6. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group reeled in just 16 receptions.
