Coach Talk

michael's Team
Listen michael's Team, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped recently, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 147.64 points through Week 3, our crew has obviously proven that it's even better than the 116.18 we needed for this past week's win!
Dmitry's Team
Hey now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: As a group, the starting backfield for Dmitry's Team collectively registered four catches on just five targets this past week. Instruct those offensive coordinators to set up a couple of screen plays in Week 5!
