Coach Talk

Doughboys
Well Doughboys, the good news is that we took this matchup by over 18 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through three weeks was 187.32. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Hooligans
Yo, Hooligans, what'd your receivers do to irk their quarterbacks this week? Accumulating only 14 total targets this past week, our four wide receivers clearly need to get in their respective QBs' ears this week in practice.
