Coach Talk

Steidle66
We do admire the confidence this past week, Steidle66. Deploying a player with zero points (Rob Gronkowski), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire. We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it in the postseason and we're finished.
Le Champion
With just one catch this past week, the starting running backs for Le Champion should investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
