Coach Talk

Tds and Beer
Deploying a starting crew that produced almost 137 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done. We should take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Chris's Team, and continue our march towards a fantasy title.
Chris's Team
Hey now, talk about old-school ground n' pound. The starting RBs for Chris's Team collectively logged only a pair of targets this past week. Get those offensive coordinators to dial up a couple of screen plays in Week 2!
