Coach Talk

Titanium's Craniums
A big key to success in football is spotting the mismatches. Thanks to a thrilling outing from Deshaun Watson, we doubled up Bullet Club at the quarterback position this past week (36.46 points to 16.06). Watson went 29-for-40 for 339 yards and two TDs in a 32-30 loss to the Eagles.
Bullet Club
Happy holidays, Bullet Club! We hope the GM of Titanium's Craniums will pen a thank-you card for the generous 98.28-point gift this past week.
