Coach Talk

Elijah's Team
We do admire the confidence this past week, Elijah's Team. Deploying a starter with zero points (Davante Adams), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Get Lucky 3 and see what happens!
kicken da chickens
Like the league's new tackling rules, remember to keep your head up, kicken da chickens! The good news is that there's still a ton of time remaining to turn this season around. These upcoming opponents may glance at your record and foolishly think they have a cakewalk. Use it to your advantage and deploy your strongest possible starting lineups... catch those complacent GMs snoozing!
