Coach Talk

socioPathogens
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, socioPathogens. It takes a special kind of moxie to roll out a starter with negative points (Stephen Hauschka) while still earning the win. All we ask is to please keep those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Formidables
Just two makes on four field goal attempts? Seems like Matt Bryant may have just kicked himself to the waiver wire after this effort.
