Coach Talk

gari's Glorious Team
Nice job overcoming that four-game losing skid, gari's Glorious Team! Each fantasy GM will surely be hit with adversity at some point or another... continue to keep your eyes out for what challenges lie ahead.
Blue Waffles
Our quarterback tossed two interceptions and literally no touchdowns? Maybe we need to go back and review the game tape. Were the Cardinals actually that strong against the pass, or was Cam Newton just that sloppy from the pocket? What do you think, Blue Waffles, do we continue to start him with confidence?
