Coach Talk

Suck my Ditka
Hey now Suck my Ditka, that's the type of showing we like to see! A completion percentage of 84% for Jalen Hurts this past week. Quality *and* quantity! The Vikings defense didn't see it coming! We know the GM of Suck my Ditka has got to be thankful for this type of efficiency and attention to detail.
Pebbleboys
Hey, Pebbleboys, what did your receivers do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? Accumulating only seven targets combined in Week 2, our two wide receivers clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
