Coach Talk

Strikers
Hey Strikers, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than 69 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're better than this, as our scoring average through 12 weeks was 392.93. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Lance Harbor
With only one catch this past week, the starting RBs for Lance Harbor should look into why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
