Coach Talk

C WOOD 1998
A big key to success in football is spotting the mismatches. Fueled by a stellar outing by Drew Brees, we thoroughly outscored FtheRefs at the quarterback position this past week (41.87 points to 3.48). Brees was a bright spot in a tight loss to the 49ers, hitting 29 of 40 passes for 349 yards and five touchdowns.
FtheRefs
Keep your chin up, FtheRefs! Look, I've been at it long enough to know that sometimes free points can just miraculously appear out of thin air. And then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Okay, okay... asking for an extra 22 points may be a bit on the excessive side.
