Coach Talk

THE CIRCLE
Hey now THE CIRCLE, that's the type of showing we like to see! A completion percentage of 81 percent this past week for Mr. Precision... Uh, sorry, I mean Trevor Lawrence. That Raiders defense didn't see it coming! We know the GM of THE CIRCLE has got to be grateful for this type of precision and attention to detail.
King Cobras
Just like the NFL's tackling rules, remember to keep your head up, King Cobras! Look, we've been at it long enough to realize that sometimes free points just seem to magically show up out of nowhere. Then sometimes, like in your case this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, alright... asking for an extra 17 points might be a bit excessive.
