Coach Talk

Hacky's Team
You know what, Hacky's Team, we do appreciate the confidence. Starting a player with zero points (Justin Jackson), while still getting the win... that's playing with fire. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Can You Diggs It and we're sure to be toast!
Hammertime
Talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting RBs for Hammertime collectively recorded just five targets this past week. Get those offensive coordinators to draw up a couple of screen plays in Week 10!
