Coach Talk

The Overkiller's
Deploying a lineup that registered 220.75 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do. We should tip our cap to the GM of Dirty 54, take this victory in stride, and continue the march towards the Motor City Football league title.
Dirty 54
Well, Dirty 54, this week's problem isn't exactly advanced calculus. Choosing to start A.J. Brown in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied 220.75 points... let's all just assume it won't happen again and move on?
