Sharing Former Team Secretsinsight

“The offense looked great. Defense was not as great, gave up some points and also had one of the saddest plays I've ever seen.”
“I don't think this rule needs to be changed. I don't think there's a big uproar. I am for the way that they work within the rules to utilize that motion.”
“If the ball goes backwards, no matter what, it's a fumble to me, right?”
“You don't have to run for shit at quarterback.”
