Coach Talk

Concussion Protocol
Earning the win is most important, Concussion Protocol, but we definitely know of one spot where we should improve as a team. Our QB was thoroughly outplayed by the opposition. Our one signal-callers combined for only 11.7 points in Week 15, while the QBs for Pooch's 1 nearly tripled us up with a score of 32.74. Let's put some more effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
Pooch's 1
Recording just three targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for Pooch's 1 should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the silent treatment.
