Coach Talk

STL VIZZED
Hey, we admire the confidence, STL VIZZED. It takes real moxie to roll out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Kerryon Johnson, Brett Maher, and Ben Roethlisberger), while still earning the W.
Pantheon
One touchdown and two interceptions for Mitchell Trubisky against the Packers this week. Five wins and 10 losses for Pantheon on the 2019 season. I'm usually pretty old-school when it comes to these fancy numbers... but my analytics folks are telling me they're not thrilled about this matching 2-to-1 INT-to-TD, Loss-to-Win ratio!
