Coach Talk

Saul Elizarraras
Earning the win is most important, Saul Elizarraras, but we've also identified one spot where we should get stronger as a team. Our running backs were soundly outmatched by the opposition. Held back by Duke Johnson (78 yards from scrimmage, no TDs) and Kerryon Johnson (157 yards, no TDs), our three RBs combined for only 3.61 points in Week 4, and the starting backfield for Hancocks Beast doubled us up with a score of 7.81. We need to bounce back with a big statement in Week 5!
Hancocks Beast
Wait, our quarterback tossed one interception and no touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape: Was Dak Prescott actually that out-of-tune with his receivers, or were the Saints just that strong against the pass? What do you think, Hancocks Beast, do we continue to start him with confidence?
