Coach Talk

Bitterness
Hey, we admire the confidence, Bitterness. Playing a starter with zero points (Will Dissly), while still getting a W... that's playing with fire. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against The Raptor and see what happens.
Doc's Devils
Your starting QB threw one interception and no touchdowns? Maybe we should go back and review the game tape: Did Jimmy Garoppolo appear shaky back there in the pocket, or were the Rams just that strong defending the pass? What do you think, Doc's Devils... do we continue starting him with confidence?
