Coach Talk

ManEaters
Listen ManEaters, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's decreased a bit lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 127.99 points through Week 9, our crew has certainly proven that it's even stronger than the 113.28 we needed for this past week's win!
Island of Misfits
"Not getting enough looks" really isn't an excuse this week for Island of Misfits. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) combined to get a grand total of 25 targets in Week 10. With just 14 total catches, that group may have some chemistry issues.
