Coach Talk

BALLSWIN
Listen BALLSWIN, we're glass-half-full kind of coaches. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's declined a bit recently, we'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 176.87 points through Week 14, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outproducing the 178.16 we needed to win this past week!
jbml
Our starting QB tossed two interceptions and not a single touchdown? We may should have a little debate here. Were the Eagles genuinely that strong against the pass, or did Jared Goff seem rattled back there in the pocket? What do you think? Do we keep rolling with him as the starting QB of jbml?
