Coach Talk

Shrek’s Ogres
Wow, Shrek’s Ogres, you really made a statement to your leaguemates with this explosive showing. Not only did you win by nearly 59 points, you also climbed from sixth place to fourth in the league standings!
Joey's Team
Well, we can't really gripe about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 19 times in Week 4. Chemistry could be the primary problem, as that group tallied only 11 catches.
