Coach Talk

Death Proof
Hey, we admire the confidence, Death Proof. Deploying a starter with zero points (Allen Robinson II), while still earning the W... that's borderline cocky. Try those shenanigans next week against flathan pablo's Superb Team and we'll be toast!
Smooth Criminal
We were just taking it easy so our guys could dominate in Week 13, right? The seven starting offensive position players (three WRs, three RBs, one TE) on Smooth Criminal collectively put up 288 yards and just three touchdowns this past week. The skill players on Death Proof made it tough on us by logging 511 yards and six scores.
