Coach Talk

Team Margaritaville
Listen, Team Margaritaville, we do certainly respect the confidence. It's a bold move to roll out a starter with zero points (the Cleveland Browns defense), while still getting the W. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against AlaskaDave and see what happens!
