Coach Talk

INDY's Team
Good work, INDY's Team. Fielding a starting crew that won by 18.52 points in Week 3. We should keep this momentum going as we head into our Week 4 matchup.
The Air Raid
The good news is that there's still a boatload of time remaining to turn this season around. These upcoming opponents might take a peek at your record and foolishly think they have a cakewalk. Lull them into a sense of complacency and hit 'em with the strongest possible lineups... they won't see it coming! Keep your head held high, The Air Raid!
