Coach Talk

Average Joes
You know, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by tripling THROAT HOAGIES at the wide receiver position (29.2 points to 9.6).
THROAT HOAGIES
Listen, I've been in this industry long enough to realize that occasionally, free points just seem to randomly show up out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Hmmm, alright... maybe asking for an additional 27 points is a bit on the excessive side. Keep pushing forward, THROAT HOAGIES!
