Coach Talk

Gerdi's Team
We do admire the confidence this past week, Gerdi's Team. Deploying a starter with zero points (Jonnu Smith), while still earning the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Matthew #4 and see what happens.
Aidan's Amazing Team
Our quarterback tossed one interception and no touchdowns? We might need to play Monday-morning quarterback here: Was Derek Carr actually that shaky in the pocket, or were the Falcons just that good defending the pass? The judgment is yours to cast, Aidan's Amazing Team, as you manage your lineup for Week 13 and beyond!
