Coach Talk

阿隆&Rivers
Earning the win is most important, 阿隆&Rivers, but we've also identified one spot where we can get stronger as a team. Our wide receivers were severely outplayed this past week. Adam Thielen (78 yards from scrimmage, one TD) logged only 28.7 points in Week 8. The pass-catchers for 番茄AKA28崇拜者 doubled us up with a score of 68. Let's bug the offensive coordinator to get some more targets in Week 9!
番茄AKA28崇拜者
Fortunately, 番茄AKA28崇拜者, Week 8's problem isn't exactly advanced calculus. Choosing to start Dak Prescott and Barkevious Mingo in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied more than 162 points... we'll just put this behind us and move on?
