Coach Talk

Sturgeon Bulldogs
Whoa, Sturgeon Bulldogs, do you consult for NASA or something? Not only did you win by nearly 37 points, you also launched yourself up to 11th place in the league standings!
Dallas Texans
Wow, talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting backfield for Dallas Texans collectively logged a couple of catches on only three measly targets this past week. Instruct those offensive coordinators to set up a couple of screen plays in Week 3!
