Coach Talk

Major Payne Spain
Hey Major Payne Spain, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than 10 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 14 stood at 114.47. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
PUMPKIN HEADS
Your quarterback tossed two interceptions and no touchdowns? Maybe we should go back and review the game tape: Did Jared Goff appear flustered back there in the pocket, or was the Eagles secondary just that strong defending the pass? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of PUMPKIN HEADS?
