Coach Talk

Daddy Kirk
Hey, we do respect the confidence this past week, Daddy Kirk. Deploying a starter with zero points (Leighton Vander Esch), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire.
Sasquatch
Ugh, talk about old-school ground n' pound. The starting RBs for Sasquatch collectively logged only five targets this past week.
