Coach Talk

Dwayne Haskins' Punch-Out!!
You know Dwayne Haskins' Punch-Out!!, the good news is that we took this matchup by over 19 points. The *even better* news is that we've proven we're stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through seven weeks was 91.81. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
The Moan Zone
Hey, The Moan Zone, what did your pass-catchers do to irk their quarterbacks this week? Accumulating just 11 total targets this past week, our starting receiver crew (three WR, zero TE) obviously got on their respective QBs' bad sides.
