Coach Talk

PlasticPads&IronMen
Getting the win is most important, PlasticPads&IronMen, but we've also identified one spot where we should improve as a team; our QB was severely outclassed this past week. Deshaun Watson went 22-of-28 for 294 yards and two touchdowns for Kneel O'Donnell, and all Andrew Luck could produce was a 16-for-27 day for 192 passing yards. We need to put some more effort into studying those playbooks!
Kneel O'Donnell
At the end of the day, only one team is actually gonna win this thing, Kneel O'Donnell... there's a lot to be said for choosing to take the classy route, gracefully congratulating those who do hoist the trophy, and start re-strategizing for next season!
