Coach Talk

waterloo vikes
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Our squad took that to heart this past week and literally tripled Rawkfist at the quarterback position (48.66 points to 14.76).
Rawkfist
Our quarterback tossed an interception and no touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape: Did Jared Goff seem shaky back there in the pocket, or were the Bears just that stout against the pass? You'll need to decide one way or the other, Rawkfist, as you set your lineup in Week 12 and beyond!
