Coach Talk

Franz Ferdinand
Putting together a lineup that accounted for almost 128 points this past week... we did what we needed to do and took care of business.
WaddleVision
Talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for WaddleVision collectively logged only one reception on three measly targets this past week.
