Coach Talk

Gaubuttelbrunn
Listen, Gaubuttelbrunn, we do certainly admire the confidence. It takes gumption to deploy not one, not two, but FIVE starters with zero points while still earning the win. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Billsrback and we're sure to be toast!
NO MA'AM
Your starting QB threw three interceptions and literally zero touchdowns? I suppose we're presented with a fork in the road here: Were the Rams actually that stout against the pass, or was Daniel Jones just that inaccurate from the pocket? This is the sort of judgment you'll have to make, NO MA'AM, as you set your lineup for Week 7 and beyond!
