Coach Talk

AtomicDawgs19
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, AtomicDawgs19. Fielding a player with negative points (Hunter Henry) while still earning the W... talk about arrogance. All we ask is to please limit those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Canadian all star
Whoa now, talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for Canadian all star collectively logged three receptions on just four targets this past week.
