Coach Talk

Meatmonger
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Our squad took that to heart this past week and thoroughly dominated Iggles at the quarterback position (69.84 points to 10.74).
Iggles
There's still a boatload of football left to be played, Iggles! Your upcoming opponents might glance at your record and foolishly think they have an easy matchup. Do what Chase Edmonds and Jeff Wilson Jr. would in this scenario and continue pounding away... catch those complacent GMs off-guard!
