Coach Talk

Boba Fett
Kudos on deploying a lineup that won by more than 22 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. Let's tip our cap to the GM of JANICE GRIFFETH, take this win in stride, and continue the march towards a fantasy title.
JANICE GRIFFETH
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (two WR, two TE) were targeted a healthy 37 times in Week 3. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they managed just 22 receptions.
