Coach Talk

I'm Thinkin' RBs
Listen I'm Thinkin' RBs, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 136.17 points through Week 3, our crew has definitely proven that it's even stronger than the 120.6 we needed for this past week's win!
The Little Giants
Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively got a whopping 28 targets in Week 4. Chemistry appears to be the primary issue, as that group reeled in just 14 catches.
