Coach Talk

BLACK LABS MATTER
Nice job, BLACK LABS MATTER. Props on deploying a starting crew that blew the opponent out by more than 90 points in Week 15.
Unicorns&Showponies
Posting only a pair of targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Unicorns&Showponies clearly need to look into why their QBs are giving them the silent treatment.
