Coach Talk

Butt smokers
You know what, Butt smokers, we do appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to play, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (C.J. Uzomah and Channing Tindall), while still earning the W. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Mama Loves Foosball
Zero touchdowns and an interception for Dak Prescott against the Buccaneers this week. Zero wins and one loss for Mama Loves Foosball on the 2022 season. I'm usually pretty old-school when it comes to all this fancy "analytics" mumbo-jumbo... but our in-house number gurus keep hitting me up, saying that this is the kind of coincidence we gotta stay away from.
