Coach Talk

Young & Sweat'y
Deploying a lineup that won by more than 38 points this past week... we did what we needed to do and took care of business.
G-Phins
Ugh, talk about old-school ground n' pound. As a group, the starting backfield for G-Phins collectively logged only three receptions on five targets this past week.
