Coach Talk

Locked and loaded
Hey, we admire the confidence, Locked and loaded. Deploying a player with zero points (Will Dissly), while still earning the W... talk about arrogant. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against L P's Nifty Team and see what happens!
G0VERNMENT's Team
Wait, our starting QB tossed one interception and not a single touchdown? We might need to go back and review the game tape: Did Derek Carr seem rattled back there in the pocket, or was the Falcons secondary just that great against the pass? This judgment is yours to make... G0VERNMENT's Team, as you manage your lineup for Week 13 and beyond!
