Coach Talk

The Real Chip Shady
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a sound performance from Carson Wentz, we thoroughly outscored Singlespeed at the quarterback position this past week (31.7 points to 12.18). Wentz went 27-for-39 for 306 yards, two TDs, and an INT in a 28-13 victory over the Redskins.
Singlespeed
With only one catch this past week, the starting RBs for Singlespeed clearly should smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to dump it down more frequently.
