Coach Talk

u/Taco_PooPoo
Identifying mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Fueled by a solid performance by Dak Prescott, we thoroughly outplayed ShortBus spammers at the quarterback position this past week (31.56 points to 6.22). Prescott went 29-for-46 for 444 yards and three TDs (plus no INTs) in a 35-27 win over the Lions.
ShortBus spammers
Wait, our starting QB threw one interception and literally zero touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape. Did Jared Goff seem rattled back there in the pocket, or were the Bears just that good against the pass? This is the sort of judgment you'll need to make, ShortBus spammers, as you set your lineup for Week 12 and beyond!
