Coach Talk

Cool Guy Zone
Hey, it's good to be confident, Cool Guy Zone. Playing a starter with zero points (Zach Pascal), while still earning a W... talk about arrogant! All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we'll be toast.
EatDrinkAndBeMariota
Talk about old-school ground n' pound. As a group, the starting RBs for EatDrinkAndBeMariota collectively recorded only one single target this past week.
