Coach Talk

Mobile Swamp Hogs
Nice job deploying a starting crew that tallied more than 126 points this past week. We did what we had to do and took care of business.
Air Express 2019
Look, Air Express 2019, we've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to magically appear out of thin air. Then sometimes, like in your case this week, they don't! Hmmm, okay... maybe asking for an extra 26 points is a bit on the excessive side.
