Coach Talk

4th and Drunk
Hey, we admire the confidence, 4th and Drunk. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Maurice Hurst), while still earning the W. Try those shenanigans next week against Blunts and Forte's and we're sure to be toast!
The Shockers v2.0
Hey, we were just resting up for Week 13, right? The six starting offensive position players on The Shockers v2.0 (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to register 382 yards and just three touchdowns this past week. Our opposition's skill players showed us how it's supposed to be done by logging 551 yards and seven scores.
