Coach Talk

My Team
Listen My Team, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped recently, I'll choose to take the high road. Averaging 749.88 points through Week 5, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outperforming the 575.2 we needed to win this past week!
Pogues Mahone
"Not getting many chances" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for Pogues Mahone. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 17 times in Week 6. With just nine total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
