Coach Talk

Brown Paper Bag
Hey, we admire the confidence, Brown Paper Bag. Deploying a starter with zero points (Harrison Butker), while still getting the W... that's borderline arrogant. All we ask is to please keep those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we're done.
Aaron Sharted in your Pool
