Coach Talk

k's Fabulous Team
Hey, we admire the confidence, k's Fabulous Team. It takes moxie to roll out not one, not two, but FOUR players with zero points while still earning the W. All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be done.
Q
Recording just three targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Q obviously need to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to start checking down more frequently.
