Coach Talk

THE BOTTOM!
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, THE BOTTOM!! Having said that, if we want to ramp our performance up to the next level, then here's one area where we can improve. Our QB was utterly outmatched by the opposition. Jameis Winston went 33-of-45 for 456 yards and four touchdowns for The Corporation, and all Tom Brady could put up was a 19-for-36 day, with 169 yards and one passing TD.
The Corporation
Whoa now, talk about old-school ground n' pound. The starting backfield for The Corporation collectively registered just three targets this past week.
