Coach Talk

Slytherin's
Props to you, Slytherin's. Good work fielding a starting crew that blew the opposition out by over 91 points this past matchup. Let's maintain this momentum as we step into our Week 2 matchup.
4-Ace's
Your starting QB threw three interceptions and just one touchdown? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape: Were the 49ers truly that good defending the pass, or was Jameis Winston just that shaky in the pocket? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of 4-Ace's?
