Coach Talk

Yokels
Nice work this past matchup, Yokels! Let's give thanks for this bountiful victory, and now focus our attention towards a tough challenge in Pickles.
TheRapists
Logging only a couple of catches on five targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for TheRapists obviously should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
