Coach Talk

GREEN LEGION
Listen, GREEN LEGION, we do certainly respect the confidence. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Darius Leonard and Josh Allen), while still getting the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists.
Jokers Wild
Our quarterback tossed two interceptions and just one touchdown? We may need to play Monday-morning quarterback here. Was Taylor Heinicke actually that shaky in the pocket, or was the Cowboys secondary just that good against the pass?
