Coach Talk

Kaepital Punishment
Whoa, that Lions defense didn't see it coming! 22 connections on 27 attempts: good enough for an 81% completion percentage for Aaron Rodgers. We know the GM of Kaepital Punishment has to be appreciative of the attention to detail.
Destiny Defined
Destiny Defined may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 34 targets in Week 2. With only 17 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
