Coach Talk

San Diego Warriors
Assembling a starting crew that won by more than 50 points this past week... we took care of business and did what had to be done.
Tyrone's Team
Lots of cake, no icing: The eight offensive skill starters (four RBs, three WRs, one TE) on Tyrone's Team combined to register a whopping 500 total yards. None of those starters was able to score a touchdown in Week 16.
