Coach Talk

Buck W¥LD 🦌
Listen Buck W¥LD 🦌, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has declined a bit lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 126.67 points through Week 15, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outproducing the 86.3 we needed to win this past week!
Sweet Pugs
Whoa now, talk about under-utilized: The starting backfield for Sweet Pugs collectively registered only a couple of receptions on five targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to draw up some screen plays in Week 17!
