Coach Talk

Alouiscious
Nice job assembling a lineup that produced more than 178 points this past week. We did what we had to do and took care of business. Let's take this victory in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Gould Rush, and continue our march towards the Et Le Touchdown 2022 league championship.
Gould Rush
"Not seeing many looks" really isn't an excuse this week for Gould Rush. As a group, our six pass-catchers (five WR, one TE) combined to receive a grand total of 33 targets in Week 5. With just 18 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
