Coach Talk

Danger Russ
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Danger Russ. It's a bold move to roll out a starter with zero points (James Conner), while still getting a win. We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we're finished.
BX GIANTS
With just one catch this past week, the starting running backs for BX GIANTS should remind their QBs to start checking down more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
