Coach Talk

Jane's Team
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to an awesome performance from Dak Prescott, we thoroughly dominated NYGiants at the quarterback position this past week (31.56 points to 6.22). Prescott went 29-for-46 for 444 yards and three TDs in a 35-27 win over the Lions.
NYGiants
Our starting QB tossed one interception and literally no touchdowns? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape. Were the Bears genuinely that stout against the pass, or did Jared Goff seem shaky back there in the pocket? You'll need to decide one way or the other, NYGiants, as you manage your lineup for Week 12 and beyond!
