Coach Talk

C the Priest
Nice job assembling a starting crew that won by 217 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. Let's keep this momentum going as we move on to our Week 8 matchup.
Chiefs 205
There's still a ton of football left to be played, Chiefs 205! The next few opponents could look at your record and foolishly think they have a cakewalk. Do what Derrick Henry and Najee Harris would in this scenario and keep pounding away... catch those complacent GMs snoozing!
