Coach Talk

Manager-less Team
You know what, Manager-less Team, we do appreciate the confidence. Deploying not one, not two, but THREE starters with zero points (Tarik Cohen, Robert Woods, and Cam Newton), while still earning a W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists. Try those shenanigans next week against Crimson Alchemists and we're sure to be toast!
Gravity Falls Dragon
So, Gravity Falls Dragon, did your receivers talk bad about their quarterbacks or something? Accumulating just six targets combined this past week, our three wide receivers obviously need to get the attention of their respective offensive coordinators this week in practice.
