Coach Talk

People's Champion
Listen People's Champion, we're "glass half full" kind of coaches. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped recently, we'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 87.34 points through Week 12, our crew has definitely proven that it's even better than the 80.4 we needed to win this past week!
Road Warriors
Logging four receptions on only five targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for Road Warriors should investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the silent treatment.
