Coach Talk

Earl's Glorious Team
Listen, Earl's Glorious Team, we certainly appreciate the confidence. Starting a player with negative points (the Buffalo Bills defense) while still getting the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists. All we ask is to please keep those shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Mike mighty team
Our starting QB tossed one interception and literally zero touchdowns? I guess we're presented with a couple of options here: Was Dak Prescott really that out-of-sync with the receiving crew, or was the Giants secondary just that good defending the pass? What do you think, Mike mighty team, do we continue to start him with confidence?
