Coach Talk

Rougarou’s
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Rougarou’s. Deploying a player with zero points (Eric Ebron), while still earning the win... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists.
Jordan's Team
Recording four receptions on only five targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Jordan's Team obviously need to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to dump it off more often.
