Coach Talk

Nasty biters
Putting together a lineup that won by over 23 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done. Let's keep this momentum as we move on to what's sure to be an exceedingly tough matchup in Week 2.
Supercats
All of the cake, none of the icing: The six offensive skill starters on Supercats (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) collectively gained a healthy 537 yards from scrimmage. Not one of those players could find his way to the end zone in Week 1.
