Coach Talk

David's Dandy Team
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no other way for us to spin this, David's Dandy Team; our starting QB was severely outplayed by the opposition. Our one men under center combined for only 6.5 points in Week 16, while the QBs for JOSEPH's # 4 tripled us up with a score of 21.76.
JOSEPH's # 4
With only a couple of receptions on four measly targets this past week, the starting running backs for JOSEPH's # 4 clearly should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
