Coach Talk

Get Swifty
Listen Get Swifty, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's declined a bit lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 122.95 points through Week 13, our crew has definitely proven that it's even better than the 114.68 we needed to win this past week!
Fort Knox
Generally, a single missed field goal isn't any reason to worry. Having said that, Matt Gay went 1-for-2 on FGs instead of 2-for-2, and Fort Knox lost the matchup by 2.32 points. Talk about impeccable timing...
