Coach Talk

Zeus1604 Saints
Football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to stellar showings by DeAndre Hopkins and Amari Cooper, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We doubled up BasStov Buccaneers at wide receiver (19.01 points to 7.98). Hopkins had 120 receiving yards while Cooper logged 83 yards.
BasStov Buccaneers
Your quarterback threw three interceptions and just a pair of touchdowns? Maybe we should go back and review the game tape. Were the Steelers actually that stout against the pass, or was Kyler Murray just that sloppy from the pocket?
