Coach Talk

Mixon it up!
Nice job, Mixon it up!. Deploying a starting crew that won by a whopping 39 points this past matchup. Let's take this win in stride, tip our hat to the GM of THE BIG DOGS, and continue our march towards the SlimsFinest league title.
THE BIG DOGS
Unless THE BIG DOGS wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many chances" is not a viable excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 32 targets in Week 9. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they reeled in only 16 receptions.
