Coach Talk

K Bizzle's Team
Listen, K Bizzle's Team, we do appreciate the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Odell Beckham Jr.), while still getting a W... that's borderline arrogant! We just ask you to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be toast.
Leader of the PACK
Talk about old-school ground n' pound. The starting backfield for Leader of the PACK collectively registered only five targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to draw up some screen plays in Week 2!
