Coach Talk

Rookie Jr.
Putting together a lineup that tallied more than 135 points this past week... we did what we needed to do and took care of business. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Enteng Da Dragons, take this victory in stride, and continue the march towards the NYOFACE DYNASTY FOOTBALL 2018 league title.
Enteng Da Dragons
Enteng Da Dragons will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 23 times in Week 13. With only nine total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
