Coach Talk

Noodles
Hey, now that's what we like to see! A completion percentage of 85% for Dak Prescott this past week. Quality and quantity! That Chargers defense didn't know what hit 'em! We know the GM of Noodles is grateful for this type of efficiency and attention to detail.
Vegas Bound
We were just taking it easy so our players could dominate in next week, right? The seven starting offensive skill players (three WRs, two RBs, two TEs) on Vegas Bound collectively put up 321 yards and just one touchdown in Week 2. The skill players on Noodles stuffed the statsheet by logging 570 yards and five scores.
