Coach Talk

Moe-ssad מוסד
Getting the win is most important, Moe-ssad מוסד, but we certainly know of one spot where we can improve as a team. Our wide receivers were significantly overmatched this past week. Jakobi Meyers (44 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) logged just 14.5 points in Week 7. The starting wideouts for Thug Nasty Wendeezy doubled us up with a score of 31.4. Let's put some more effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
Thug Nasty Wendeezy
Thug Nasty Wendeezy will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) combined to see a healthy 32 targets in Week 7. With just 17 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
