Coach Talk

TheNigerianNightmare
Mission accomplished, TheNigerianNightmare. Good job fielding a team that won by 637 points in Week 7. We should maintain this momentum as we move on to our next matchup in Week 8.
MB Tide
Posting four catches on only five targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for MB Tide should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
