Coach Talk

5Fingers2YoFace
Listen 5Fingers2YoFace, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped recently, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 262.08 points through Week 9, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outproducing the 239.6 we needed to win this past week!
big diesel
Well, we certainly can't complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and two TE) were targeted a grand total of 25 times in Week 10. With only 13 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
