Coach Talk

David's Fascinating Team
Who really cares if you ended up sliding from first place to second this past week... the important take-away here is that your squad won the matchup. Maintain focus week-to-week and good things are sure to come.
Justin's Rad Team
Ugh, talk about under-utilized. The starting backfield for Justin's Rad Team collectively logged only four targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to set up some screen plays in Week 9!
