Coach Talk

Fightin' Armadillos
You know, the key to football is finding the mismatches. Fueled by a solid performance by Dak Prescott, we utterly dominated Marvin’s Room at the quarterback position this past week (40.91 points to 11.46). Prescott went 26-for-30 for 269 yards, three TDs, and an INT in a 31-21 triumph over the Redskins.
Marvin’s Room
Registering just two targets this past week, it appears that the starting RBs for Marvin’s Room should remind their QBs to start checking down more frequently (and dial up a screen play or two).
