Coach Talk

The Wallerus
Whoa, The Wallerus, you put the rest of the league on notice with this shellacking. In addition to a 45-point victory, you also climbed a couple of places in the league standings. Nice work!
Garoppolypse Now
Your starting QB tossed one interception and literally no touchdowns? I guess we've stumbled upon a fork in the road here: Was Tom Brady actually that out-of-sync with the receiving crew, or were the Giants just that good against the pass? What do you think, Garoppolypse Now, do we continue to start him with confidence?
