Coach Talk

M0nStEr bLiTz
Whoa, the Colts defense didn't know what hit 'em! 29 completions on 30 attempts: good enough for a completion percentage of 97 percent for Drew Brees. We know the GM of M0nStEr bLiTz has gotta be thankful for that attention to detail.
Don Julio
Like the league's new tackling rules, it's important to keep your chin up, Don Julio! Trust me here (this is coming from a coach who's frequently lived life on the hot seat)... You can take comfort knowing that there's always that pro-bono Assistant Coaching gig open at the local Pop Warner team down the road!
