Coach Talk

THE BOSS
Hey, the key to football is taking advantage of the mismatches, right? Thanks to stellar numbers from our pass-catchers, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We utterly dominated budapest bulliess at wide receiver (24 points to 5). Julio Jones had 128 receiving yards while Sammy Watkins chipped in with 64 yards.

Wait, our quarterback tossed three interceptions and just a pair of touchdowns? We may need to play Monday-morning quarterback here: Was Case Keenum really that off-rhythm with his receiving crew, or was the Bears secondary just that good against the pass? What do you think, budapest bulliess... should we continue to deploy him with confidence?
