Coach Talk

Goin Deep
Spotting mismatches is a big component to winning in football. Fueled by a awesome display by Drew Brees, we utterly dominated G-Man's Great Team at the quarterback position this past week (40.54 points to 15.58). Brees lit up the Falcons defense to the tune of 396 yards and three passing touchdowns.
G-Man's Great Team
Try to take solace in the fact that your generosity did not go unnoticed, G-Man's Great Team. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Goin Deep succeed this week. Who knows, maybe they'll return the favor by taking a couple of defenses early in next year's draft... or something like that.
