Coach Talk

Pantheon Hulks
Hey, we admire the confidence, Pantheon Hulks. It's a bold move to roll out a starter with zero points (Cooper Kupp), while still earning the W. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Ripsnorters and we're sure to be toast!
Sunnydale Scoobies
A single missed field goal generally isn't cause for concern. But come on now, talk about impeccable timing: Daniel Carlson went 2-for-3 on FGs instead of 3-for-3, and Sunnydale Scoobies lost the matchup by 0.94 points. We'll let you do the math on that one.
