Coach Talk

Chubba Choo Choo
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, Chubba Choo Choo. Our quarterback was severely overmatched this past week. Dak Prescott went 32-of-49 for 355 yards and two touchdowns for Travis, and all Drew Brees could manage through the air was 184 yards and one passing TD. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 14!
Travis
Here's a list of scenarios where it's acceptable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the Finals. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Brett Maher might be kicking himself back into the free agent pool following this effort.
