Coach Talk

SuperbPremonitions
Well SuperbPremonitions, the good news is that we took this matchup by more than 14 points. Even better news is that we know we're stronger than this, as our scoring average through five weeks was 111.05. So while we're happy to have earned this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Tha Champ
Listen, Tha Champ, we've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to miraculously appear out of the blue. Then in some cases (like this week) they don't! Hmmm, alright... asking for an extra 15 points might be a little excessive.
