BEST QUOTE FROM PETE WERNER'S 2024 SEASON:
"I've said it from the start of the year, we've got the same talent that we did at the start of the year. We're just not putting it together and I think it goes back to what we were talking about, the details. I think we can't stay complacent with these losses. Somebody has got to bring the juice. Somebody has got to get that energy back and it's got to start. It's got to start in practice this week."
