Coach Talk

Sprint Right Option
Props to you, Sprint Right Option. Nice work fielding a lineup that recorded more than 132 points in Week 4. Let's keep this momentum going as we roll into a tricky matchup in Week 5.
GrundlePimp
Unless GrundlePimp wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a respectable 28 targets in Week 4. With only 17 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
