Coach Talk

Sutton Sleepers
These types of close wins are paramount for the locker room. Persevering through trials and tribulations, while triumphing in the face of adversity... expect the Sutton Sleepers team chemistry to be stronger than ever heading into Week 12.
The Dirty Hippies
Our starting QB threw four interceptions and only two touchdowns? We may should have a little debate here. Were the Saints actually that great defending the pass, or did Jameis Winston appear rattled back there in the pocket? You'll need to decide one way or the other, The Dirty Hippies, as you deploy your lineup for Week 12 and beyond!
