Coach Talk

Seattle Seahawks
Putting together a lineup that tallied almost 286 points this past week... we took care of business and did what had to be done. We should take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Las Vegas Raiders, and continue the march towards the NFL Franchise Dynasty League championship.
Las Vegas Raiders
Our starting QB tossed two interceptions and no touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape: Was Derek Carr really that inaccurate from the pocket, or were the Rams just that stout against the pass? This is the sort of decision you'll have to make, Las Vegas Raiders, as you set your lineup in Week 15 and beyond!
