Coach Talk

Flag on The Play
Mission accomplished, Flag on The Play. Deploying a starting crew that won by over 32 points in Week 1. Let's keep this momentum going as we head into what will surely be a tricky matchup in Week 2.
jbml
Zero touchdowns and an interception for Jared Goff against the Cowboys this week. Zero wins and one loss for jbml on the 2020 season. Usually I'm pretty old-fashioned when it comes to all these fancy numbers and stuff... but our analytics staff keeps hitting me up, saying that this is the kind of coincidence we gotta stay away from.
