Coach Talk

Justin's Rad Team
Listen, Justin's Rad Team, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It takes real moxie to start, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Chase Claypool), while still getting a W. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we're done.
bigearv14's Fabulous Team
Posting only one catch on five targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for bigearv14's Fabulous Team should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
