Coach Talk

River City Rage
Listen, River City Rage, we do admire the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Marlon Mack), while still earning a win... talk about arrogant.

Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: As a group, the starting RBs for Las Vegas Outlaws collectively logged just three targets this past week.
