Coach Talk

SIXBURGH
You know SIXBURGH, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 133.11 points through Week 3, our crew has shown it's more than capable of outproducing the 114.58 we needed to win this past week!
Eat it!
Don't get too discouraged, Eat it!! Listen, we've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes free points can just randomly appear out of thin air. And then sometimes, like in your matchup this week, they don't! Well, okay; hoping for an extra 19 points might be a little excessive.
