Coach Talk

Lamar the Merrier!
Well, we do applaud the confidence this past week, Lamar the Merrier!. Playing a starter with negative points (plus a zero-point player) while still earning a win... talk about arrogance. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
D's Dandy Team
A completion percentage of 42% this past week for Kirk Cousins!? Wow, we're legitimately wondering if he'd be able to hit the ocean while standing on the beach!
