Coach Talk

Scott Hors d'oeuvres
Hey, we admire the confidence, Scott Hors d'oeuvres. It takes a certain kind of gumption to start a player with zero points (Anthony Miller), while still getting the W! All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be finished.
Phran Tarkenton
Your quarterback threw three interceptions and just a single touchdown? Maybe we need to go back and review the game tape. Were the Titans really that stout against the pass, or was Baker Mayfield just that inaccurate from the pocket? This is the sort of judgment you'll have to make... Phran Tarkenton, as you set your lineup for Week 2 and beyond!
