Coach Talk

Double Tap Kap
Getting the win is most important, Double Tap Kap, but we've also identified one spot where we can get better as a team. Our QB was severely outclassed by the opposition. Our one signal-callers combined for just 10 points in Week 5, and the QBs for Bunky's Raw Dogs showed us how it's supposed to be done by putting up a score of 66. Let's put some more effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
Bunky's Raw Dogs
Only four field goals on seven attempts? Sounds like Mason Crosby should reevaluate his pre-kick process after that sort of performance... especially every point being so critical to Bunky's Raw Dogs in this narrow matchup.
