Coach Talk

North Dallas Forty
Well, we do respect the confidence this past week, North Dallas Forty. It's a bold move to play a player with zero points (Ricky Seals-Jones), while still getting a win! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we're finished.
Fluffy Bunnies
A single missed field goal isn't usually a reason to get upset, but talk about impeccable timing: Harrison Butker went 1-for-2 on FGs instead of 2-for-2, and Fluffy Bunnies dropped the matchup by 2.72 points. We'll let you do the math on that one.
