Coach Talk

The Real McKoy
Just three makes on five field goal attempts? Sounds like Joey Slye might be kicking himself back into the free agent pool after this effort.
Pop's
Look, we've been at it long enough to know that every once in a while, free points can just magically appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Hmmm, alright; asking for an additional 17 points might be a bit on the excessive side. Just like the NFL's new tackling rules, remember to keep your head up, Pop's!
