Coach Talk

Gary Gus's Team
We do respect the confidence this past week, Gary Gus's Team. Deploying a starter with zero points (Demarcus Robinson), while still getting the win... talk about arrogant. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Bad News Bears and we're sure to be toast!
Debo
Look, Debo, I've been in this business long enough to realize that sometimes points can just miraculously show up out of nowhere. Then in some cases (like this week) they don't! You know, the more I think about it... asking for an extra 28 points may be a bit excessive.
