Coach Talk

Bad Boy
You know what, Bad Boy, we do certainly respect the confidence. It takes real gumption to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (Terry McLaurin and Denzel Perryman), while still getting the win! All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Press Coverage
With only a couple of catches this past week, the starting running backs for Press Coverage should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the silent treatment.
