Coach Talk

Son Of Sam
You know Son Of Sam, the good news is that we took this matchup by over 21 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're better than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through eight weeks was 135.23. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Super Mariota Bros
With one reception on only two targets this past week, the starting RBs for Super Mariota Bros should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
