Coach Talk

Buttf**kers of Destruction
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Buttf**kers of Destruction! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve: our quarterback was severely outmatched by the opposition. Patrick Mahomes went 26-of-35 for 259 yards and two touchdowns for Gridiron Gladiators, and all Tyler Huntley could manage was a 20-for-32 outing for 197 passing yards and an ugly interception.
Gridiron Gladiators
Unless Gridiron Gladiators wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing enough opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. Our trio of pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 24 times in Week 17. With only 11 total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
