Coach Talk

Hacky's Team
Nice job, Hacky's Team. Kudos on fielding a team that blew the opposition out by almost 64 points this past matchup. We should take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Da Rams, and continue on our way towards the Smash and Dash league title.
Da Rams
Wait, our starting QB tossed two interceptions and no touchdowns? I suppose we've stumbled upon a fork in the road here. Were the truly that good against the pass, or was Cam Newton just that inaccurate from the pocket? What do you think? Do we keep rolling with him as the starting QB of Da Rams?
