Coach Talk

Bob Loblaw
Listen, Bob Loblaw, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Anthony Levine Sr.), while still getting the W. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we'll be done.
Blue Lives Matter!
"Not seeing many chances" really isn't an excuse this week for Blue Lives Matter!. Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 20 times in Week 2. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group reeled in just 11 receptions.
