Coach Talk

El Jefe
All of the cake, none of the icing: The six starting offensive skill players on El Jefe (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) combined to register a healthy 421 yards from scrimmage. None of those starters managed to find the end zone in Week 9.
Amy's Grid Iron Gang
Keep your chin up, Amy's Grid Iron Gang! You can rest easy knowing that your kindness this week didn't go unnoticed. It was generous of you to help someone like El Jefe succeed... and maybe one day, they can return the favor by going Kicker-Defense in the first two rounds of next year's draft, something along those lines.
