Coach Talk

Mo Trouble
Well done, Mo Trouble. Fielding a team that won by 11.58 points this past matchup. Let's keep this momentum going as we head into what will surely be a difficult Week 3 matchup.
Darnold’s fivehead
Your quarterback tossed one interception and literally no touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape. Were the Lions genuinely that great against the pass, or was Philip Rivers just that out-of-sync with his receivers? You'll need to decide one way or the other, Darnold’s fivehead, as you manage your lineup in Week 3 and beyond!
