Coach Talk

Jughead
Listen Jughead, the good news is that we won this matchup by over 18 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're better than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through four weeks was 139.96. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
