Coach Talk

Blunts and Forte's
You know what, Blunts and Forte's, we do appreciate the confidence. It takes real guts to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Fred Warner and Robert Nkemdiche), while still earning the win. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be finished.
JLEAGUER
Marcus Mariota tossed one interception and not a single touchdown? It may be that thankful time of year, but we're having a lot of trouble being grateful for that sort of performance.
