Coach Talk

Kelly's Kanines
You know, this sport is all about spotting the mismatches. Fueled by a stellar display from Carson Wentz, we thoroughly outscored Los Jefes at the quarterback position this past week (23.9 points to 8.98). Wentz went 33-for-50 for 325 yards and two TDs in a six-point win over the Giants.
Los Jefes
Your quarterback tossed two interceptions and literally zero touchdowns? It might be wise to go back and review the game tape: Were the Bengals genuinely that good defending the pass, or did Baker Mayfield seem rattled back there in the pocket? What do you think? Do we keep rolling with him as the starting QB of Los Jefes?
