Coach Talk

Bob Sugar
Getting the win is most important, Bob Sugar, but we definitely know of one spot where we should improve as a team. Our quarterback was severely outplayed by the opposition. Jimmy Garoppolo went 28-of-37 for 317 yards and four touchdowns for Garoppolypse Now, and all Gardner Minshew II could manage through the air was 309 passing yards and two ugly interceptions. We need to bounce back with a big statement in Week 10!
Garoppolypse Now
With just three receptions this past week, the starting RBs for Garoppolypse Now should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
