Coach Talk

Lambeau Leapers
Listen Lambeau Leapers, the good news is that we took this matchup by over 17 points. Even better news is that we know we're better than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 13 stood at 181.82. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Off to Grandma!
You can rest easy knowing that your generosity didn't go unnoticed. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Lambeau Leapers succeed this week... and when the time comes, perhaps they'll return the favor by taking a couple of defenses early in next year's draft (something along those lines). Keep your head up, Off to Grandma!!
