Coach Talk

Hakuna Matata
You know Hakuna Matata, the good news is that we took this matchup by 12 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through nine weeks was 84.72. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Warriors
Recording a couple of receptions on just three measly targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for Warriors clearly should look into why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
