Coach Talk

Kaep's Klusterphuks
Hey Kaep's Klusterphuks, the good news is that we won this matchup by 1.5 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this, as our scoring average through Week 12 stood at 134.75.

Mojo's Mighty Bucs
Wait, our starting QB tossed two interceptions and just one touchdown? We might need to play Monday-morning quarterback here. Were the Patriots really that stout defending the pass, or was Kirk Cousins just that shaky in the pocket? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of Mojo's Mighty Bucs?
