Coach Talk

Str8 Cash Mahomies
Listen, Str8 Cash Mahomies, we do respect the confidence. It takes a certain sort of moxie to roll out a starter with zero points (the Cleveland Browns defense), while still earning a W. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it in the playoffs and we'll be finished.
🌑🌑🌑
🌑🌑🌑 may find it tough to complain about lack of opportunities this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 19 targets in Week 1. With only 11 total receptions, that group may have some chemistry issues.
