Coach Talk

Swirlzz
Wow, the Raiders secondary didn't know what hit 'em! 20 completions on 24 attempts... good enough for an 83% completion percentage for Patrick Mahomes. We know the GM of Swirlzz is thankful for this type of attention to detail.
How High
When the dust settles, only one manager's actually gonna win this thing... you might as well take this year's lessons to heart and start strategizing for next season, right? Keep your head up, How High!
