Coach Talk

Moore's White cLaw
Hey, now that's what we like to see! A staggering 17 completions on just 20 attempts for Lamar Jackson this past week. Quality over quantity! That Dolphins secondary didn't stand a chance! In what wound up being a tight matchup, the manager of Moore's White cLaw is thankful for the precision and attention to detail.
I WANT FAAB
Take my word for it (since I'm a coach who's lived life on the hot seat)... If this "fantasy GM" thing doesn't work out, you can always fall back on that gritty Graduate Assistant job available at the community college down the street!
