Coach Talk

Norman Nobodies
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? Thanks to a sound outing from Baker Mayfield, we absolutely dominated The Dogs of War at the quarterback position this past week (27.75 points to 10.7). Mayfield went 17-for-32 for 193 yards, two TDs, and no INTs in a 21-7 win over the Steelers.
The Dogs of War
With one catch on only two measly targets this past week, the starting running backs for The Dogs of War should remind their quarterbacks to start checking down more often (and dial up a screen play or two).
