Coach Talk

BUD LIGHT
Bravo, BUD LIGHT. Putting together a lineup that logged 806.6 points in Week 7. Let's take this win in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Cheeseheads, and continue our march towards a fantasy championship.
Cheeseheads
So, Cheeseheads, what did your receivers do to tick off their quarterbacks this week? With just eight targets combined in Week 7, our two wide receivers clearly need to get in their respective QBs' ears this week in practice.
