Coach Talk

AC/DC Anarchy
Hey, this sport is all about creating mismatches, right? Thanks to an awesome performance by Lamar Jackson, we quadrupled Dipper at the quarterback position this past week (37.17 points to 8.97). Jackson went 24-for-37 for 272 yards and two TDs in a 23-17 win over the Cardinals.
Dipper
Your starting QB tossed two interceptions and just a single touchdown? We might need to go back and review the game tape: Was Kirk Cousins actually that off-rhythm with his receiving crew, or were the Packers just that strong defending the pass? What do you think, Dipper, do we continue to start him with confidence?
