Coach Talk

Cash Money
Listen Cash Money, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 127.73 points through Week 3, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outperforming the 111.48 we needed for this past week's win!
Ridgemont Wolves
Well, this week's problem is pretty easy to diagnose, Ridgemont Wolves. Going with Dan Bailey in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied 111.48 points... let's use this as an opportunity to get better and all agree that it won't happen again.
