Coach Talk

Cojones Grande
Hey, football is all about creating mismatches, right? Thanks to stellar numbers from our pass-catchers, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We nearly tripled Witch Hunt! at wide receiver (27.8 points to 9.6). Jarvis Landry had 57 receiving yards while D.J. Moore chipped in with 67 yards.
Witch Hunt!
Our starting QB tossed three interceptions and just a single touchdown? I guess we've stumbled upon a fork in the road here. Was Mitchell Trubisky really that out-of-tune with his receiving crew, or was the Rams secondary just that good defending the pass? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of Witch Hunt!?
