Coach Talk

sam's Team
Listen, sam's Team, we do appreciate the confidence. Playing a starter with zero points (Julian Edelman), while still getting a win... that's borderline arrogant.
Harry's Unreal Team
Talk about under-utilized. The starting backfield for Harry's Unreal Team collectively logged one catch on only two targets this past week.
