Coach Talk

Clone Club
Nice work, Clone Club. Bravo on assembling a lineup that exceeded the century mark this past matchup. Let's maintain this momentum as we move on to what will surely be a tough Week 10 matchup.
Cleveland Steamers
Wow, talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting backfield for Cleveland Steamers collectively logged only a couple of receptions on five targets this past week. Tell those quarterbacks to check down a little more often in Week 10!
