Coach Talk

Sandbagging
Hey, it's good to be confident, Sandbagging. Deploying a starter with zero points (Nick Bosa), while still earning the win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be finished.
Michael's Misfits
With one catch on just two measly targets this past week, the starting RBs for Michael's Misfits should work to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to start checking down more often.
