Coach Talk

tardy perch
Nice job assembling a starting crew that posted 377.62 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done.
RT17
Our starting QB threw two interceptions and literally zero touchdowns? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape. Were the Dolphins actually that good against the pass, or was Ian Book just that sloppy from the pocket?
