Coach Talk

Griffo's Quality Team
Deploying a lineup that won by nearly 34 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do.
Beach House
Hey, at least there were no celebration penalties: The six starting offensive skill players (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) on Beach House collectively gained a whopping 478 total yards. Not one of those players, unfortunately, could find his way to the end zone in Week 16.
