Coach Talk

Pulsechamber
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Pulsechamber... our running back was significantly outplayed this past week. Aaron Jones (31 total yards, no TDs) logged only 7.1 points in Week 13, and the starting backfield for Tds and Beer showed us how it's supposed to be done by putting up a score of 18.2. We need to work with the O-line to find some more holes in Week 14!
Tds and Beer
Coming from someone who's lived life on the hot seat, let me assure you: if this whole "fantasy football coach" thing doesn't work out, you can always fall back on that scrappy Assistant Coaching job available at the local high school down the road!
