Coach Talk

Beg Burrow & Steal
Innovative play design and countless hours in the film room. Blood, sweat, and tears in practice. Full attention from all 11 guys in the huddle. Each and every route, every single throw, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. The outcome? A solid 37 completions on 46 attempts: good enough for a completion percentage of 80 percent for Joe Burrow this past week. That Ravens secondary didn't see it coming!.
Hangin with Mr Cooper
Just one make on three field goal attempts? Sounds like Matt Prater might be kicking himself to the waiver wire following this effort.
