Coach Talk

Do it the Calla-Way
You know what, Do it the Calla-Way, we do admire the confidence. It takes a certain sort of moxie to play a starter with zero points (Demaryius Thomas), while still earning the win. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Tygame Taylor
Chin up, Tygame Taylor! You can rest easy knowing that your kindness this week didn't go unnoticed. It was generous of you to help someone like Do it the Calla-Way succeed... and perhaps one day, they'll return the favor by going Defense-Kicker in the first two rounds of the 2019 draft, something like that.
