Coach Talk

MGKVSBRD
Well MGKVSBRD, the good news is that we took this matchup by more than 34 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through Week 8 stood at 88.69. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
Patrick Mahomeless
Yo, Patrick Mahomeless, what'd your receiving crew do to annoy their quarterbacks this week? With only four total targets in Week 9, our three wide receivers clearly need to get in their respective QBs' ears this week in practice.
