Coach Talk

Enforcers
Hey, we do respect the confidence this past week, Enforcers. Deploying a starter with zero points (Courtland Sutton), while still earning the win... that's borderline cocky! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be done.
Boomtown Brawlers
Recording only five targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Boomtown Brawlers should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to start checking down more often.
