Coach Talk

Seahawks in 2018
Countless hours in the film room and on the practice field. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Each and every route, every single pass, planned meticulously and executed to perfection. The outcome? A staggering 31 connections on 35 attempts... good enough for an 89 percent completion percentage for Russell Wilson this past week. The Falcons secondary didn't know what hit 'em!.
5Fingers2YoFace
Take my word for it (as a coach who's frequently lived life on the hot seat)... You can take comfort knowing that there's always that volunteer Graduate Assistant gig open at the community college down the road! Keep your head held high, 5Fingers2YoFace!
