Coach Talk

Josh's Team
Well, we do applaud the confidence this past week, Josh's Team. It takes moxie to field a player with negative points (the New Orleans Saints defense) while still getting the W. All we ask is to please keep those shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
The mystery machine
We just took it easy so our players could dominate in Week 4, right? The seven starting offensive position players (three WRs, two RBs, two TEs) on The mystery machine collectively put up 168 yards and just one touchdown this past week. The skill players on Josh's Team definitely outperformed us by logging 511 yards and three scores.
