Coach Talk

Skip's Team
Hey, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. We not only dominated Ron's Eagles at WR (28.8 points to 10.8), we also quadrupled them at RB (37.7 to 9).
Ron's Eagles
Jared Goff tossed two interceptions and not a single touchdown? It may be that grateful time of year, but we're having a lot of trouble giving thanks for that sort of display.
