Coach Talk

The Squeaker Squad
You know what, The Squeaker Squad, we do appreciate the confidence. It takes real moxie to deploy a starter with zero points (Devin White), while still getting the W! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Plantation Tomcats
Hey now, talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting RBs for Plantation Tomcats collectively registered only five targets this past week.
