Coach Talk

Alouiscious
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Alouiscious! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve... our quarterback was significantly outplayed by the opposition. Jalen Hurts went 21-of-27 for 243 yards and two touchdowns for Xtra Pointz, and all Matthew Stafford could muster was a 13-for-27 day, with 165 yards and one passing TD. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 10!
Xtra Pointz
Ugh, talk about under-utilized. The starting RBs for Xtra Pointz collectively recorded three receptions on only four targets this past week. Get those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 10!
