Coach Talk

Bitch Slappers
You know what, Bitch Slappers, we do certainly admire the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Trumaine Johnson), while still getting a W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it in the playoffs and we're finished.
Saul Elizarraras
Welp, we can't really whine about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively got a grand total of 33 targets in Week 2. With only 19 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
