Coach Talk

Hooligans
Assembling a starting crew that won by almost 44 points this past week... we took care of business and did what had to be done.
Brewmasters
Just one make on three field goal attempts? Seems like Justin Tucker might have just toe-bashed himself to the waiver wire after this effort.
