Coach Talk

No Limit Bowler
Earning the win is most important, No Limit Bowler, but we've also identified one spot where we should get stronger as a team. Our wide receivers were thoroughly overmatched by the opposition. Held back by Richie James Jr. (nine yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Allen Robinson II (seven yards, no TDs), our three WRs combined for just 14.6 points in Week 4. The starting wideouts for Crawlah's Knights tripled us up with a score of 46.18. We need to put some extra effort into studying those playbooks!
Crawlah's Knights
You can feel good knowing that your generosity this week did not go unnoticed, Crawlah's Knights. It takes a true winner to help someone like No Limit Bowler succeed. Who knows, maybe they'll return the favor by choosing a couple of kickers early in next year's draft... something like that!
