Coach Talk

Neopol jets
Sure, we ultimately earned the win, but there's really no other way for us to spin this, Neopol jets. Our running backs were soundly overmatched by the opposition. Joshua Kelley (two yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Nyheim Hines (33 yards, no TDs) combined for only 8 points in Week 11, while the starting backfield for Zilina Saints tripled us up with a score of 26. Let's put some more effort into scouting these upcoming defenses!
Zilina Saints
Fortunately, Zilina Saints, Week 11's problem isn't exactly advanced calculus. Starting Hayden Hurst and the New England Patriots defense in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied 105.66 points... let's aim to play with a full deck of cards next time?
