Coach Talk

Shalabajzeri
Listen, Shalabajzeri, we do certainly admire the confidence. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Davante Adams), while still getting a tie! All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be toast.
spopov_k_2022
All kinds of activity between the 20's: The six offensive position starters on spopov_k_2022 (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to register a healthy 379 total yards. None of those starters, unfortunately, could find his way to the end zone in Week 8.
