Coach Talk

Fantasy Football Team
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Fantasy Football Team. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Terry McLaurin), while still getting the W. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Nana Nancy
There are plenty of lessons we can take away from this season and apply to next year... it's never too early to start strategizing and thinking about how to get better! Keep your head up, Nana Nancy!
