Coach Talk

Tua Legit Tua Quit
Hey, we'll definitely take the win, Tua Legit Tua Quit! Having said that, if we want to take our performance to the next level, then we have found an area to improve. Our starting quarterback was severely overmatched by the opposition. Josh Allen went 30-of-47 for 314 yards and three touchdowns for Jesse & the Rippers, and all Tom Brady could manage was an 18-for-30 outing, with 232 yards and one passing TD.
Jesse & the Rippers
Logging only one catch on three measly targets this past week, it seems like the starting running backs for Jesse & the Rippers clearly need to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more often.
