Coach Talk

Desert Eagles
You know Desert Eagles, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has declined a bit lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 98.29 points through Week 7, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outproducing the 69 we needed for this past week's win!
Iz Čikaga moji...
Talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for Iz Čikaga moji... collectively logged four receptions on only five targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up some screen plays in Week 9!
