Coach Talk

Gerbschmidt
You know what, Gerbschmidt, we do admire the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Eric Ebron and Damien Harris), while still getting the W.
Harrisburg Hitmen
Yo, Harrisburg Hitmen, what did your wideouts do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? Seeing just 11 total targets this past week, our two wide receivers obviously need to get in their respective QBs' ears this week in practice.
