Coach Talk

Joe
The key to success in football is taking advantage of the mismatches. Along with tripling BoysInBlue at QB (46 points to 15), we also utterly dominated them at RB (57 to 10).
BoysInBlue
Listen, we've been at it long enough to realize that sometimes free points can just randomly appear out of thin air. And then sometimes, like in your matchup this week, they don't! Hmmm, okay; maybe asking for an extra 72 points is a bit overzealous. Keep your head up, BoysInBlue!
