Coach Talk

Nuk Cooks You Breesy
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? We really took that to heart this week by quadrupling Tony No Mo at the wide receiver position (80.8 points to 19.5).
Tony No Mo
Our starting QB threw one interception and literally no touchdowns? We might need to play Monday-morning quarterback here. Did Drew Brees seem rattled back there in the pocket, or were the Panthers just that good defending the pass? What do you think, Tony No Mo... do we continue rolling with him?
