Coach Talk

Kick butt! Hiya!!!
This sport is all about creating mismatches. With great performances by Dalvin Cook and Mark Ingram, our crew certainly made that a point of emphasis this past week. We thoroughly outscored The Dominators at the running back spot (35.7 points to 4.5). With 163 total yards and two TDs, Cook did most of the damage, while Ingram chipped in with 74 yards.
The Dominators
Your starting QB threw one interception and not a single touchdown? Maybe we should go back and review the game tape: Did Eli Manning seem shaky back there in the pocket, or was the Titans secondary just that stout defending the pass? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of The Dominators?
