Coach Talk

Show us your TDs
Props to you, Show us your TDs. Nice work assembling a lineup that recorded 124.59 points in Week 1. Let's tip our cap to the GM of No YOU'RE the puppet, take this W in stride, and continue the march towards the Defecto league title.
No YOU'RE the puppet
Hey, at least there were no celebration penalties: The six starting offensive skill players on No YOU'RE the puppet (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to register a healthy 413 yards from scrimmage. None of those starters, unfortunately, could find his way to the end zone in Week 1.
