Coach Talk

Ed's Excellent Team
You know Ed's Excellent Team, the good news is that we won this matchup by over five points. Even better news is that we know we're better than this, as our scoring average through Week 6 stood at 121.11. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Anthony's First-Rate Team
Sam Darnold tossed one interception and literally zero touchdowns? It may be that spooky time of year, but that type of performance is just a little too frightful for our liking.
