Coach Talk

Bugs bunny
You know what, Bugs bunny, we do certainly respect the confidence. It's a bold move to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Jason Pierre-Paul and Jadeveon Clowney), while still getting the W! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Volcano Man
You can feel good knowing that your generosity didn't go unnoticed, Volcano Man. It takes a true winner to help someone like Bugs bunny succeed this week. Who knows, maybe they'll return the favor by selecting a couple of defenses early in next year's draft... or something like that!
