Coach Talk

SheriM's Swell Team
Deploying a lineup that won by 16 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do. We should keep this momentum going as we step into our next matchup in Week 6.
RUMblin Bumblers
Unless RUMblin Bumblers wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough opportunities" cannot be an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 30 times in Week 5. With just 16 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
