Coach Talk

Thomas Jefferson
Putting together a lineup that registered over 152 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right.
The Irishman
With only three receptions this past week, the starting running backs for The Irishman obviously should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to dump it down more often.
