Coach Talk

KRAPPERNACKER
Nice job assembling a lineup that won by a staggering 63.62 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done. We should keep this momentum rolling as we move on to what will surely be a challenging Week 6 matchup.
J-Dawgs Cowboyz
Unless J-Dawgs Cowboyz wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 25 times in Week 5. Those players should try to get some extra practice reps in with their QBs, considering they managed just 15 catches.
