Coach Talk

Least Managed Team
Listen, Least Managed Team, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to start, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Calvin Ridley and Jerry Jeudy), while still getting a win. Try those shenanigans next week against Ditka Naybox and see what happens.
Bob Loblaw
Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound. As a group, the starting backfield for Bob Loblaw collectively registered just four targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up some screen plays in Week 7!
