Coach Talk

The Garoppolypse
Nice job assembling a starting crew that posted more than 169 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right.
GloriouslyVictorious
Just three makes on five field goal attempts? Seems like Justin Tucker should reevaluate his pre-kick process after this effort.
