Coach Talk

King in the North
Good work, King in the North. Kudos on fielding a lineup that netted more than 93 points this past week. Let's maintain this momentum as we step into our next challenge in Week 4.
Chubby Chasers
There's still a boatload of time left to turn this season around, Chubby Chasers! Your upcoming opponents might glance at the win-loss record and foolishly think they have an easy matchup. Do what Derrick Henry and Royce Freeman would in this situation and continue pounding away... catch those complacent GMs off-guard!
