Coach Talk

the ball breakers
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly dominating Schmo and Cows at the wide receiver position (43.2 points to 15.8).
Schmo and Cows
Wait, our starting QB threw an interception and not a single touchdown? We may need to have a little debate here: Were the Bears actually that great against the pass, or did Jared Goff seem flustered back there in the pocket? What do you think? Do we keep rolling with him as the starting QB of Schmo and Cows?
