Coach Talk

Bofa Dez Knuts
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Bofa Dez Knuts! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve: our quarterback was severely overmatched by the opposition. Jameis Winston went 20-of-30 for 249 yards and two touchdowns for Gerbschmidt, and all Drew Brees could put up was a 18-for-28 outing, with 127 yards and one passing TD (plus an ugly interception). We need to work overtime to get on the same page with our receivers this week!
Gerbschmidt
Listen, Gerbschmidt, I've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to miraculously appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases (like this week) they don't! Okay, okay... maybe asking for an extra 11 points is a bit excessive.
