Coach Talk

Debo
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? Fueled by a thrilling display from Dak Prescott, we doubled up I Heart Chiavettas at the quarterback position this past week (33.4 points to 16.64). Prescott orchestrated a big win over the Giants, going 25-of-32 for 405 yards and four passing TDs.
I Heart Chiavettas
Unless I Heart Chiavettas wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough looks" is definitely not a valid excuse this time around. Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a healthy 29 targets in Week 1. With only 11 total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
