Coach Talk

The Big 11’s
Now that's what we call a bounce-back... The GM of The Big 11’s shrugged off their two-game winless streak by putting up a tremendous 139.54 points this past week!
Jesse & The Rippers
Welp, we certainly can't complain about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our five pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 36 times in Week 9. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they hauled in only 19 receptions.
