Coach Talk

Wizardos Tiburones
Hey, it's good to be confident, Wizardos Tiburones. It takes gumption to deploy a starter with zero points (Cam Akers), while still earning the W! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be finished.
Tachov Titans
Unless Tachov Titans wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this time around. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively received a respectable 37 targets in Week 1. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in just 22 receptions.
