Coach Talk

Potsy's Posse
Hey, we admire the confidence, Potsy's Posse. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Alshon Jeffery), while still earning a win! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
My Team
Look, My Team, I've been in this business long enough to realize that sometimes points just seem to magically appear out of thin air. Then in some cases (like this week) they don't! Hmmm, okay... hoping for an extra 166 points may be a little much.
