Coach Talk

MOBSQUAD
Hey, it's good to be confident, MOBSQUAD. Deploying a player with zero points (Chris Jones), while still getting the W... talk about arrogant.
Outlaws
Posting four catches on just five targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Outlaws should remind their quarterbacks to start checking down more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
