Coach Talk

SMOKINHIPPYKILLERS
Innovative play design and countless hours in the film room. Blood, sweat, and tears in practice. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Each and every route, every single throw, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. And the outcome? A staggering 27 connections on 32 attempts: good enough for a completion percentage of 84% for Baker Mayfield this past week. That Giants secondary didn't see it coming!.
Steel Curtain
With just one reception this past week, the starting RBs for Steel Curtain should investigate why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
