Coach Talk

Red Storm
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by a thrilling showing by Jared Goff, we utterly dominated Brian McDougall at the quarterback position this past week (51.13 points to 8). Goff went 31-for-49 for 413 yards and four TDs (plus no INTs) in a three-point win over the Chiefs.
Brian McDougall
Carson Wentz threw three interceptions and literally zero touchdowns? Thanksgiving may be upon us, but we're having a lot of trouble giving thanks for that sort of performance.
