Coach Talk

Who Cares
Hey, we admire the confidence, Who Cares. It takes a special kind of moxie to roll out a starter with zero points (Austin Hooper), while still earning the W! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Joe burrow
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's somewhat acceptable to go 0-for-2: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and a pair of Shaquille O'Neal free throws. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Wil Lutz may have just toe-bashed himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
