Coach Talk

Roughnecks
Bravo, Roughnecks. Good work fielding a starting crew that won by more than 14 points this past week. We should tip our cap to the GM of Norman Nobodies, take this victory in stride, and continue the march towards a fantasy title.
Norman Nobodies
Zero touchdowns and an interception for Cam Newton against the Rams this week. Zero wins and one loss for Norman Nobodies on the 2019 season. Usually I'm pretty old-fashioned when it comes to all this fancy "analytics" mumbo-jumbo... but our in-house number gurus keep badgering me, saying that this is the kind of coincidence we'd like to avoid.
