Coach Talk

Planet united
You know Planet united, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 107.4 points through Week 5, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outproducing the 83 we needed to win this past week!
Shalabajzeri
There's still a boatload of time left to turn this season around, Shalabajzeri! Your next few opponents might look at the win-loss record and foolishly believe they have a cakewalk. Do what Blake Bortles would after an interception, and go deep on the next opportunity... catch those complacent GMs off-guard!
