Coach Talk

Elite Stampede
You know Elite Stampede, the good news is that we took this matchup by almost 20 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're better than this, as our scoring average through four weeks was 114.69. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Ethan's Expert Team
All of the cake, none of the icing: The six offensive skill starters on Ethan's Expert Team (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to record a whopping 405 total yards. Not one of those players was able to score a touchdown in Week 5.
