Way to hold them off. That 1-2 punch at HB is a thing of beauty. How did Dell develop?
You got “2027” on your roster post.

[The Sauce]

I love the old school power running approach you took here. Using a pretty subpar-average freshman QB to win the title was a great accomplishment.

I saw the overalls of the other QBs and was curious if you have any thoughts to move on from Craft eventually?
