Coach Talk

SloppySeconds
Listen SloppySeconds, we're glass-half-full kind of coaches. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has declined a bit recently, we'll choose to take the high road. Averaging 102.85 points through Week 14, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outperforming the 78.66 we needed to win this past week!
Juan Acosta's Team
Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound. As a group, the starting RBs for Juan Acosta's Team collectively recorded just three targets this past week. Instruct those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 16!
