Coach Talk

AngryBirdman
A big key to success in football is taking advantage of the mismatches. We not only doubled up Panzerleader at QB (28.35 points to 12.85), we also doubled them at RB (32 to 14.2).
Panzerleader
Listen, Panzerleader, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that sometimes points just seem to magically appear out of the blue. Then sometimes (like this week) they don't! You know, now that I think about it... hoping for an extra 53 points might be a bit overzealous.
