Coach Talk

Goldmine 💣💰💣
Hey, we admire the confidence, Goldmine 💣💰💣. It's a bold move to play a player with zero points (Mike Gesicki), while still getting a W! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
CANES MAN
CANES MAN will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 10. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group hauled in only seven catches.
