Coach Talk

The Belichick
Props to you, The Belichick. Nice job fielding a team that recorded 174.52 points this past matchup. Let's take this W in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Happy Endings, and continue our march towards a fantasy championship.
Happy Endings
Welp, we can't really gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 20 times in Week 4. Chemistry and timing appear to be issues as that group hauled in only 10 receptions.
