Coach Talk

Allen Robinson 🤬🤬🤬
We do respect the confidence this past week, Allen Robinson 🤬🤬🤬. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Jalen Tolbert), while still earning the win! All we ask is to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be toast.
More than a Thielen
Zero touchdowns and an interception for Aaron Rodgers against the Vikings this week. Zero wins and one loss for More than a Thielen on the 2022 season. Normally I'm pretty old-fashioned when it comes to all this fancy "analytics" mumbo-jumbo... but our in-house bean counters keep telling me that this is the sort of coincidence we gotta stay away from.
