Coach Talk

Gibson’s Finest
Listen Gibson’s Finest, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 136.29 points through Week 9, our crew has definitely proven that it's even stronger than the 111.1 we needed for this past week's win!
Slower Clap
Unless Slower Clap wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" isn't really a reasonable excuse this time around. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a whopping 14 times in Week 10. With just eight total receptions, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
