Coach Talk

ICaCaPooPoo
Innovative play design and countless hours in the film room. Blood, sweat, and tears in practice. 11 guys in the huddle, all on the same page. Every single route, every single throw, meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. And the final result? A spectacular 28 connections on 29 attempts... good enough for a 97 percent completion percentage for Philip Rivers this past week. The Cardinals secondary didn't stand a chance!.
Mark L's Team
Missing a field goal isn't typically cause for concern. Having said that, Graham Gano went 2-for-3 on FGs instead of 3-for-3, and Mark L's Team lost the matchup by 3.5 points. Talk about impeccable timing...
