Coach Talk

Rigby's
Listen Rigby's, the good news is that we won this matchup by over eight points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're better than this, as our scoring average through 14 weeks was 99.56. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Demolition men
Ugh, talk about under-utilized: The starting backfield for Demolition men combined to receive zero targets in the passing game this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up a screen play or two in Week 16!
