Coach Talk

Ten Toes Down
We do appreciate the confidence this past week, Ten Toes Down. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Carlos Hyde), while still earning 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.
DirtBags
Listen, we've been at it long enough to realize that every once in a while, free points can just randomly show up out of nowhere. And then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay; asking for an additional 29 points may be a bit overzealous. Keep your head up, DirtBags!
