Coach Talk

Dawgman
Kudos to you, Dawgman. Putting together a lineup that registered 147 points in Week 2. Let's tip our cap to the GM of King Cobras, take this W in stride, and continue pushing forward to the Make_It_Do_What_It_Do league title.
King Cobras
Two WRs, two RBs, one TE, zero TDs: The five offensive position starters on King Cobras collectively gained a healthy 310 yards from scrimmage. Not one of those players could find his way to the end zone in Week 2.
