Coach Talk

TheMuffinStuffers
Well done, TheMuffinStuffers. Fielding a starting crew that won by over 13 points in Week 1. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Double Chubb’d, take this W in stride, and continue pushing forward to a fantasy title.
Double Chubb’d
Zero touchdowns and an interception for Trey Lance against the Bears this week. Zero wins and one loss for Double Chubb’d on the 2022 season. I'm usually pretty old-fashioned when it comes to all these fancy numbers and stuff... but our analytics folks keep telling me that this is the kind of coincidence we should try to be avoiding.
