Coach Talk

iDA B€$T @ Di$ cHiT
We do admire the confidence this past week, iDA B€$T @ Di$ cHiT. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Kenny Golladay and Robbie Anderson), while still getting the W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
They Might Be Giants
Sorry They Might Be Giants, but the blame for this close loss can be placed more heavily on the Giants coaches than anything else. The gameplan led to the QB firing off only 17 passes against the Texans. Daniel Jones did what he could, connecting with his target on an outstanding 76 percent of them!
