Coach Talk

NY Giants /Big Blue
Good job deploying a lineup that netted 415.57 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done. We should tip our cap to the GM of jasmine's Team, take this victory in stride, and continue the march towards a fantasy championship.
jasmine's Team
Your starting QB tossed two interceptions and literally no touchdowns? I guess we're presented with a fork in the road here. Were the Saints actually that good defending the pass, or did Aaron Rodgers seem flustered back there in the pocket? What do you think, jasmine's Team... do we continue starting him with confidence?
