Coach Talk

Green Bowl Packers
We just can't overstate how critical tight victories like this are for team chemistry. Persevering in the face of adversity and triumphing as a tight-knit unit... expect the Green Bowl Packers locker room to really gel riding into Week 2.
Albert's Dusty Team
Posting just one measly target this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Albert's Dusty Team should remind their quarterbacks to dump it down more often (and dial up a screen play or two).
