Coach Talk

Robocops Azory
Well done, Robocops Azory. Nice job fielding a starting crew that netted 156.52 points this past week. We should keep this momentum going as we step into our next challenge in Week 2.
Pink Fluffy Unicorns
Unless Pink Fluffy Unicorns wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting enough opportunities" can't be an excuse this time around. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 20 targets in Week 1. Chemistry could be a problem, as that group managed just 11 receptions.
