Coach Talk

All The Way UP!
You know what, All The Way UP!, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes real moxie to play a starter with zero points (DeVante Parker), while still getting the W! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we're finished.
The Northern Woodsmen
As we say adios to 2021, let's reflect on the fantasy season and appreciate all of the ups and the downs that came with it. Okay, well really just five ups and 10 downs, but still... Our coaching staff thanks you for spending a great year with us, and here's to 2022!
