Coach Talk

Bell Cows
Bravo on assembling a starting crew that produced 161.61 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done. Let's take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of OLD SCHOOL BADASSES, and continue on our way towards a fantasy championship.
OLD SCHOOL BADASSES
One touchdown and two interceptions for Jimmy Garoppolo against the Steelers this week. One win and two losses for OLD SCHOOL BADASSES on the 2019 season. Usually I'm pretty old-fashioned when it comes to these fancy numbers... but my analytics folks keep saying they're not thrilled about this matching 2-to-1 INT-to-TD, Loss-to-Win ratio!
