Coach Talk

🏈Gridiron & Wine 🍷
Hey, it's good to be confident, 🏈Gridiron & Wine 🍷. It takes real guts to deploy a starter with zero points (O.J. Howard), while still getting the win. We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Booooo Luck
Posting three receptions on just four measly targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Booooo Luck should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
