Coach Talk

Brian’s All Stars
Putting together a lineup that accounted for more than 184 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. We should keep this momentum rolling as we move on to our next challenge in Week 8.
Wolverines
Listen, Wolverines, I've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes five extra points will just randomly come out of nowhere... and then in some cases, like this week, they won't! In the grand scheme of things, the most important thing here is that you tried.
