Coach Talk

Brown Town
Nice job assembling a lineup that netted nearly 93 points this past week. We deem that to be a job well done.
Brian's Grand Team
Wait, our starting QB tossed three interceptions and just a single touchdown? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape: Was Derek Carr really that out-of-sync with his receiving crew, or was the Steelers secondary just that great against the pass?
