Coach Talk

Alvin Instant Kamara
Nice work deploying a starting crew that produced 192 points this past week. We took care of business and did what we needed to do. We should keep this momentum going as we roll into our Week 3 matchup.
Double Tap Kap
Ugh, talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for Double Tap Kap collectively registered three receptions on only four measly targets this past week. Get those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 3!
