Coach Talk

THE WHOLE F'N SHOW
Well, we do admire the confidence this past week, THE WHOLE F'N SHOW. Rolling out not one, but TWO players with zero points (Dane Cruikshank and James White), while still getting a win... that's borderline arrogant. All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be done.
Erskine's Dawgs
Logging three catches on only four measly targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for Erskine's Dawgs should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the silent treatment.
