Coach Talk

Monjeau Magic
Bravo on assembling a starting crew that produced more than 88 points this past week. We deem that to be a job well done.
The Kroniez
Posting three receptions on only four targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for The Kroniez should remind their quarterbacks to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
