Coach Talk

Boss Hogg's Rangers
Hey, it's good to be confident, Boss Hogg's Rangers. It's a bold move to deploy, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Josh Jacobs and Jamal Adams), while still getting the win! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Coal's Minors
Wait, our starting QB threw one interception and literally no touchdowns? I suppose we're presented with a couple of options here: Were the Rams actually that great defending the pass, or did Russell Wilson appear flustered back there in the pocket? The judgment is yours to cast, Coal's Minors, as you set your lineup in Week 15 and beyond!
