Coach Talk

Dylan's Dazzling Team
Props to you, Dylan's Dazzling Team. Putting together a lineup that posted more than 94 points in Week 1. Let's keep this momentum as we step into a tricky challenge in Week 2.
thomas's First-Rate Team
"Not getting many opportunities" shouldn't really be an excuse this week for thomas's First-Rate Team. As a group, our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a hearty 18 times in Week 1. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they recorded only eight receptions.
