Coach Talk

Kingdom of the North
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's really no way sugarcoat it, Kingdom of the North. Our running backs were thoroughly overmatched this past week. Kenyan Drake (38 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and James White (26 yards, no TDs) combined for just 15.65 points in Week 10. Marlon Mack and Todd Gurley II showed us how it's supposed to be done by putting up a score of 39.8. Let's put some extra effort into scouting these upcoming defenses!
White Walkers
Listen, White Walkers, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that sometimes points just seem to miraculously appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases (*cough cough*, Week 10) they don't! Hmmm, alright... hoping for an extra dozen points might be a little excessive.
