Coach Talk

The Replacements
Deploying a starting crew that won by more than 30 points this past week... we took care of business and did what had to be done. Let's maintain this momentum as we step into our Week 9 matchup.
Shitty Toe Drop
While it is that spooky time of the year, we'd prefer to see fewer tricks and more treats from your starting players, Shitty Toe Drop... 104.84 points was just a bit too ghoulish for our liking.
