Coach Talk

Baker of House Tyrod
Props to you, Baker of House Tyrod. Nice job deploying a team that blew the opposition out by almost 22 points this past matchup. We'll take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of The Empire, and continue pushing forward to the TEXAS FIGHT CLUB league championship.
The Empire
Your starting QB tossed four interceptions and not a single touchdown? We may have quite a dilemma on our hands here: Did Jared Goff seem shaky back there in the pocket, or were the Bears just that stout defending the pass? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of The Empire?
