Coach Talk

KEVIN B's Team
Listen KEVIN B's Team, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring's decreased a bit recently, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 175.62 points through Week 5, our crew has definitely proven that it's even better than the 133.44 we needed for this past week's win!
VivaLasVegas
Wait, our quarterback threw three interceptions and just a single touchdown? We may should have a little debate here. Were the Eagles truly that stout defending the pass, or did Cooper Rush seem flustered back there in the pocket? What do you think, VivaLasVegas... should we continue rolling with him?
