Coach Talk

JE43
Assembling a starting crew that won by 31.64 points this past week... we took care of business and did what had to be done. Let's maintain this momentum as we roll into our Week 2 matchup.
Kevin's Standout Team
Kevin's Standout Team will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) combined to see a grand total of 24 targets in Week 1. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group tallied only 10 receptions.
