Coach Talk

2Keeb18
Hey 2Keeb18, the good news is that we won this matchup by over 12 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're stronger than this, as our scoring average through 14 weeks was 108.74. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Let's Get It
Don't beat yourself up too badly, Let's Get It! Listen, I've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes free points just seem to miraculously show up out of nowhere. And then sometimes, like in your matchup this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, alright... hoping for an additional 13 points may be a little excessive.
