Coach Talk

Doughboys
Assembling a lineup that earned over 159 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. We should keep this momentum going as we roll into a tricky matchup in Week 14.
Vultures
Recording just a pair of receptions on five targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Vultures should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to dump it off more frequently.
