Coach Talk

Crazy Dogs
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Crazy Dogs. Our quarterback was utterly outclassed by the opposition. Our one signal-callers combined for only 9.38 points in Week 9, while the QBs for HowAboutCowboys tripled us up with a score of 30.18. Let's put some extra effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
HowAboutCowboys
Hey now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: The starting RBs for HowAboutCowboys collectively logged just four targets this past week. Instruct those quarterbacks to check down a little more often in Week 10!
