Coach Talk

GREEN LEGION
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's not really any way sugarcoat this, GREEN LEGION. Our running backs were utterly outclassed by the opposition. Buoyed by Ito Smith (22 total yards, no TDs) and Mike Davis (50 yards, no TDs), our three RBs combined for just 60.07 points in Week 11, and the starting backfield for Dayton Triangles showed us up by recording a score of 212.97. Let's work with the O-line to find some more holes in Week 12!

Marcus Mariota tossed one interception and literally no touchdowns? Thanksgiving may be upon us, but we're having a lot of trouble giving thanks for that sort of performance.
