Coach Talk

Mississippi
Nice job, Mississippi. Putting together a lineup that won by 36.57 points this past week. We should take this win in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Ditka vs. God, and continue pushing forward to a fantasy title.
Ditka vs. God
Your starting QB tossed an interception and no touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape. Were the Ravens genuinely that stout defending the pass, or was Philip Rivers just that out-of-tune with his receiving crew? This is the sort of judgment you'll need to make, Ditka vs. God, as you manage your lineup for Week 10 and beyond!
