Coach Talk

Iceman king Carsons
This sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a solid showing from Matt Ryan, we almost tripled Mr.McMahon at the quarterback position this past week (28.52 points to 9.68). Ryan went 24-for-36 for 273 yards and four TDs in a 40-39 loss to the Cowboys.
Mr.McMahon
Try to take solace in the fact that your generosity did not go unnoticed, Mr.McMahon. It takes a true winner to help someone like Iceman king Carsons succeed this week. Who knows, maybe they'll return the favor by selecting a couple of defenses early in next year's draft... something like that!
