Coach Talk

HOUSTON TEXANS
Listen, HOUSTON TEXANS, we certainly appreciate the confidence. Starting a starter with negative points (Matthew Stafford) while still getting the win... that's borderline arrogant.
Grandpa's Destroyers
Logging only one measly target this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for Grandpa's Destroyers should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
