Coach Talk

Trut Miners
Kudos to you, Trut Miners. Nice work fielding a lineup that posted more than 167 points in Week 14. We'll take this win in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Angeell's Team, and continue on our way towards the CZNFL A League 18 championship.
Angeell's Team
Welp, we certainly can't whine about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 35 times in Week 14. With just 21 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
