Coach Talk

Chubby chasers
Whoa, now that's the sort of performance we like to see! A completion percentage of 89 percent this past week for Mr. Precision... Uh, sorry, I mean Russell Wilson. That Falcons defense didn't stand a chance! We know the GM of Chubby chasers is grateful for that precision and attention to detail.
Bad Company $925
Listen, Bad Company $925, I've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to magically appear out of thin air. Then in some cases (like this week) they don't! Okay, okay... hoping for an extra 15 points may be a bit overzealous.
