Coach Talk

Shark bait
Listen, Shark bait, we do certainly respect the confidence. Playing not one, not two, but THREE starters with zero points (Terrell Lewis, Wil Lutz, and Nick Scott), while still getting the win... that's playing with fire. Try those shenanigans next week against Gritz Blitz and we're sure to be toast.
Assimilate THIS
With just four catches this past week, the starting RBs for Assimilate THIS should remind their quarterbacks to start checking down more often (and dial up a screen play or two).
