Coach Talk

Mad 'E'
Bravo, Mad 'E'. Nice job deploying a starting crew that registered 152.62 points this past week. We should tip our cap to the GM of Richie Rich, take this W in stride, and continue marching forward to a fantasy championship.
Richie Rich
Well, we can't really complain about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 34 times in Week 4. With just 17 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
