Coach Talk

Unbreakables
Putting together a lineup that won by a whopping 44.56 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we needed to do.
The Specters
Tons of action between the 20's: The six offensive skill starters on The Specters (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to record a healthy 423 total yards. Unfortunately, none of those starters could find his way to the end zone in Week 16.
