Coach Talk

Dwayne Haskins' Punch-Out!!
You know Dwayne Haskins' Punch-Out!!, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has decreased a bit lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 95.18 points through Week 11, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outperforming the 84.1 we needed for this past week's win!
Tua the Rescue
Three WRs, one RB, zero TE, zero TDs: The four offensive position starters on Tua the Rescue combined to register a whopping 249 total yards. Not one of those players could get into the end zone in Week 12.
