Coach Talk

NewGoreleans Zombies
Well NewGoreleans Zombies, the good news is that we won this matchup by over 17 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through 14 weeks was 90.71. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
White Walkers
Our quarterback tossed two interceptions and not a single touchdown? I guess we're presented with a couple of options here. Did Case Keenum appear flustered back there in the pocket, or were the Browns just that great defending the pass? What do you think? Do we keep rolling with him as the starting QB of White Walkers?
