Coach Talk

Philistines
Nice work assembling a lineup that posted almost 106 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done.
Puh
Look, we've been in this business long enough to know that occasionally, nine extra points can just randomly appear out of the blue... and then in some cases, like this week, they don't! In the grand scheme of things, the most important thing is that you gave it your best shot. Keep pushing forward, Puh!
