Coach Talk

Konan Packers
Well, we do applaud the confidence this past week, Konan Packers. Playing a starter with negative points (JuJu Smith-Schuster) while still getting the win... that's playing with fire. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Zeus1604 Saints
Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: As a group, the starting RBs for Zeus1604 Saints collectively logged just five targets this past week.
