Coach Talk

The Mid Rounders
Whoa, The Mid Rounders, do you consult for NASA or something? Not only did you win by nearly 19 points, you also launched yourself four whole spots to third place in the league standings!
Motherboy
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) were targeted a respectable 25 times in Week 2. With only 14 total catches, this group may have some chemistry issues.
