Coach Talk

Anthony Scudder
Listen, Anthony Scudder, we do certainly admire the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Jason Sanders), while still getting the win... talk about arrogant. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Mike Honcho '18
Unless Mike Honcho '18 wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not seeing many looks" isn't really a valid excuse this week. As a group, our six pass-catchers (five WR and one TE) collectively got a healthy 46 targets in Week 2. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group recorded only 28 receptions.
