Coach Talk

Finkle is Einhorn
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, Finkle is Einhorn. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Jordan Reed), while still getting the win. Try those shenanigans next week and see what happens.
Devante's Inferno
With literally zero passes thrown their direction this past week the starting running backs for Devante's Inferno obviously should investigate why their QBs are giving them the silent treatment.
