Coach Talk

Lumberjacks
Yo, Lumberjacks, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this performance. Along with a 22.78-point victory, you also jumped up two places in the league standings!
Black Flag
Hey, Black Flag, what did your receivers do to annoy their quarterbacks this week? With only 11 targets as a group this past week, our two wide receivers obviously got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
