Coach Talk

Michael's Misfits
Hey, we admire the confidence, Michael's Misfits. It's a bold move to roll out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Rashard Higgins, Tyler Higbee, and Zack Moss), while still earning a win! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we're toast.
Losthope4Houston
With one catch on just two measly targets this past week, the starting RBs for Losthope4Houston obviously should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
