Coach Talk

Sharks
Nice job, Sharks. Deploying a team that tallied more than 462 points this past matchup.
Jokers Wild
Posting only five targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for Jokers Wild should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more often.
