Coach Talk

tommy's Unbelievable Team
Listen, tommy's Unbelievable Team, we do respect the confidence. It's a bold move to roll out a player with zero points (Harrison Butker), while still getting a W. Try those shenanigans next week against GTK2 and we're sure to be toast.
Daniels's Dandy Team
Unless Daniels's Dandy Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many chances" is definitely not an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 31 times in Week 3. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group hauled in just 16 catches.
