Coach Talk

Music City Madman
Well Music City Madman, the good news is that we took this matchup by almost two points. The better news is that we've proven we're even better than this, as our scoring average through Week 11 stood at 97.72. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
